On the delta app, only saw the option to request upgrade for Delta Comfort. I've been confirmed for this upgrade, but what about requesting 1st class upgrade? Last time I flew delta it had that option

Without asking or confirming, account lead booked an in-person client meeting that requires travel. Who books ~any~ major client meeting without first checking with the team ?

Kudos to the man on the train next to me who has his ticket around his neck, his glasses in his hand and a full sleeping mask on. 😴

Would it be practical to look for an apartment 10-15 kms away if the office location is Marathahalli?
Location of choice would be hebbal, thanisandra, avalahalli and other similar ones.
Would it make sense to reside in such locations and travel to work?
Would like to hear from folk who are/have done the above?

ACN 🐠: how many hours do you average per week and how does that vary by grade? Also, has travel to Riyadh resumed? TIA

I know there are multiple posts about this but I still can’t think of the right way to play United Wholesale Mortgages. Too nervous to sell covered calls with the ex div date and high OI for calls in March. Anyone considered averaging down?

I have an H1b which I received in 2019 and was valid till august2021, due to covid I wasn't able to travel and then I switched to another firm last year in November. If I get visa transfer, will it provide me a validity back as I haven't used any on site time on that visa.

TIA

Can I buy a privacy screen filter at jfk airport?

Travel and TTC combo haven’t worked. After 6 months, the only offer I got included 4 weeks paid and FLMA only after 1 year. So 1) go and risk laughable benefits or 2) stay but risk TTC. So shitty 😭

Extension of Marriott status!! Rejoice!

I booked basic economy even though I’m platinum on delta using rewards since it was crazy cheap. Does upgrading to regular economy cost a lot? Will there be a cheapest time to move up?

Any star alliance status match delta platinum?

Should I change my British airways flight to United to get more points? I have no status anywhere

Anyone joined cisco recently? I asked recruitor if cisco will provide relocation benifits like hotel for some initial days they said no. Is it normal in cisco? I mean if someone is relocating from outside banglore how they can expect employee will have some place to live from day 1.

A Delta flight I took from the US to the EU a few months ago was delayed 24 hours (of which I spent at the airport) and when I asked for a refund for the $1300 ticket they declined and offered a $150 gift card 😂🥴🙃

Starting as an SM in S&A on the strategy side in the next few weeks. What does travel budget generally look like? I understand first class flights are a no go domestic which sucks, but hoping hotel and food budget makes up for it. Also, does Deloitte pay for platinum Amex or is that out of pocket?

Best place to book an Airbnb in South Florida or West Palm beach area?

Looking for senior Salesforce developers/architects in the US! Joined my previous mentor in starting a new Salesforce practice. Company is based in SF but we’re ok with folks working remotely. Might require some travel once it’s safe again but not anytime soon. Good opportunity to be actively involved in building something from nothing

We as the armed forces of the United States have a research department, but the greatest advances at the armament level come from private sectors, this could not be something counterproductive because if they sell a product to us, what deprives them of selling it to other countries?

Best interview tips?

So how is 19A coming along?- we have been pleasantly surprised

I would love a job that is virtual and gets the same perks as a teacher. Any ideas?

After a final interview, how many days after can I expect an answer from the recruiter?

At the end of the interview, the person told me I passed the interview and they were going to talk to the Director who’s a level under them. It’s a yes for them and they’re happy to work with me.

I also sent my references. I don’t know when I can expect an reply. Recruiters from that company aren’t really organised

de Blaiso says we’re on track to hit orange zone of restrictions post Thanksgiving which means no more indoor dining among other things.

The metric they are using is % positivity rate.

My question is this - is this a fair metric and if not what is a better metric to compare if it’s getting worse and we need social controls?

I only got tested when I traveled out of state for wedding and thought I was at a high(er) risk for exposure. Tested positive but I was already expecting that. (Contd)

Anyone been successful negotiating the price of an apartment recently? Astoria apartment listed for $2k with a broker fee trying to get ~$1950.

Help! I just got invited to a black tie event tomorrow and don’t have a dress. I am a plus size woman so about a 16 or 18 and have no idea where I can buy a dress in person in this little amount of time. Any ladies who know which stores have good plus size options in NYC?

Anyone received first round application as an auditor virtual interview form Deloitte recently? Has anyone taken that before? I have clues about the written reposes. If anyone could tell me a little bit about it that would be great thank you!!!!!

As Catholics of the Roman Rite I hope that most of you are aware of the two forms of Roman Rite. There is the Novus Ordo Mass which is the modern rite that resembles nothing of Catholic doctrine and..

What are your thoughts on the marital debt? Do you ever talk about it or ask for the debt to be paid by your spouse?

Anyone here a fan of the TLM?

I'm a depressed 32 yrs old single with 8 YOE. Last drawn CTC was 5 LPA even after switching 5 companies.
When I see Ppl with 18LPA or 23LPA with 4 or 5 YOR, I really feel my gut wrench with sadness wishing I had that CTC.
I need to put up things right to rebuild my life all over again. What do I do?

Best books on entrepreneurship? Trying to find a good birthday gift for a friend thinking of starting his own company and exploring business ideas

Masters baby what a time

Good books for case prep/valuation. Econ consulting, if relevant. TIA

Deloitte Switzerland went bankrupt a few years ago. UK partners bought out the company in order to rescue….of course they establish their own people as they are now the owners. Now we have British partners running the Swiss office. No issues there. But there is an exodus of people leaving to rival firms. Either too much English or they don’t like the new work culture….:( not sure what is not to like about Deloitte though

I am a contractor with a three month rolling contract and have decided not to renew my contract again. Should I give two weeks notice? I already confirmed it would be renewed with my manager before a new opportunity came along that I am very excited about. I had planned on giving 3 weeks notice, that is until two people in my immediate personal circle have said my company will probably just let me go the day I tell them since I am a contractor. Thoughts?

How do I not get jealous? Of my friends from college got pulled from ey to EYP with only 1 yoe. Got promoted and now about to make 170k with 2 yoe total. She’s on an internal role and just does pmo and works maybe 930-5? All due to the fact a partner she was working with on an event said I like you, join my team. I’m making half of that and we studied the same thing and went to the same uni

What are some of the best books you’ve read about people and investing? Such as dealing with people (business psychology almost) and then investing (real estate more specifically)!

I am looking for books that give practical advice, not just big picture theory and motivation.

I’m at the point where I just won’t apply to a job if they use workday. The interface is terrible and it never pulls correctly from my resume

Books to learn more about how to drive sales in consulting? Any recommendations?

Anyone work in Ops at a hedgefund? Are middle / BO roles there worth the transition from consulting?

If you have 20k that you wanna invest or do something with it to let your money grow, what would you do (besides investing in the stock market) and why?

Does it make sense to get promoted to Senior Consultant before leaving a firm? Either to go to another consulting firm or elsewhere.

Are companies looking to hire more minorities and people who identify as LGBTQ+? I saw a post about a job listing for a Big 4 and it said it had a strong preference for people who identify as LGBTQ+ or a minority racial group. Does this mean they have a higher chance of getting the job? Not trying to start any political debates, I’m just generally curious.

What do recruiters mean when they say that they are looking for a “producer”?

Was learning some AI/ML and realized how I gave completely false and BS perspective on the same topic to one of the T2 partners and passed the interview with great feedback. Confidence is all that matters folks!

What's the deal with PTO, holidays, and utilization?

Anyone at Highmark Health? Would love to get your input on a few questions. Thanks!
