Unless your project has per diem, which is rare, our Amex is reimbursed for actual expenses. $150 per day. Expense it and fill out your expense report at the end of the month in Concur.

Don’t forget you can be reimbursed for cash tips. Tip your housekeeping team!

Out of pocket expenses under a certain amount don’t need a receipt. In Concur, you’ll search for out of pocket expenses or gratuity and put the amount. $5 or so per day is reasonable.

New as well, run a search on DailyHub for the travel expense policy or ask in the company fishbowl group

Any thoughts around how to use M&A tax skills for the better good? I’m a CPA and originally got into this for a stable / interesting job, but in the long-term I’d like to do something that either influences drafting of tax legislation or helps the public (however naive that may sound). Perhaps I’ve gotten too introspective during the pandemic. Don’t really want to go back for a JD and aside from keeping a roof over my head I’m not very motivated by money. Anyone else have similar ideas?

You CAN be that leader that people want to work with. 1st, self assessment is required. Be honest: As a leader,have you engaged in/accepted Attribution Bias with a dash of gender &/or race bias?
