That's outrageous. You must have a very cheap ticket but still.

like

Upgrade priority depends on when you purchased your ticket. Usually if I don’t buy mine two weeks in advanced then I don’t get an upgrade on some popular routes. (I’m EP for what it’s worth)

like

On American it’s not based on when you buy your ticket any more. It’s level of status then 12 month rolling EQD. They changed the algorithm earlier this year

This just means exec platinum isnt all that exclusive, and your hard earned 115k miles is accomplished by a lot of other people. Happy Monday!

I've been interviewing with some companies, and now I have to decide between JPMorgan Chase and Globant.

Globant is more innovative, and has remote work. I will enter to work with a Sillicon Valley startup based in San Francisco. The tech stack is React, Nextjs, AWS, and a serverless architecture.

JPM is semi remote, and less innovative. The tech stack Java, SpringBoot and AWS. But I'd do more migration tasks, like dockerize projects and pass them to kubernetes. What would you choose?
