JW at LA Live is better option. 3 blocks from DTLA.

The Westin was awesome in 1976, now it’s just a big ass beige hotel.

Sheraton is best situated for bars and restaurants. +1 for the recently remodeled. JW is going to be the nicest, but is at LA live, which is a touristy spot... Not great restaurants or bars.

In all fairness, either JW or Westin are 10 min walk from Sheraton.

Westin!

JW

Sheraton

There are more restaurants and food/drink options in that area plus Westin rooms are a bit older and shabbier

Neither, but Sheraton was remodeled fairly recently so I’ll give it the nod. As far as chain hotels go, the Checkers Hilton is a better option. If you like to party, can’t go wrong with the Standard or Ace.

Rank is Ritz, Sheraton Grand, JW, Westin Bonaventure. But that said, I like the Bonaventure and will typically stay there.

Ritz or JW if you don’t mind being unable to walk as easily to the rest of the financial district.

Westin! Atrium is awesome

Whichever is more expensive

This is my first job in a large corporate company, and I’m trying to gauge how long it normally takes to move from entry level to another internal position in the insurance industry. I have been applying internally for a year now and I am wondering if this is normal or if my company is just slow? I am a top performer, with great metrics, and I have some wonderful connections I’ve made who support me. I just can’t seem to move up. How long did it take you to move up? How many tries did it take?
