Any recommendations on St Regis vs Ritz Carlton Istanbul?

I'm about to start my first travel case. SPG or Accor?

Lyft driver delayed picking me up 30 min, resulting in me canceling my ride and asking hotel to call me a “yellow taxi” to get to the airport because it was 5am and all ubers/lyfts were 15 min. Specifically said yellow. Hotel calls me a private lux SUV and the driver got out of the car to handshake the man who called and said hi (honestly money couldve been passed). I then get hit with a $180 ride. Marriott website says taxi should be $65. Should I complain or let it go?

Sheraton Atlanta Perimeter North - worth it for a confirmed suite as opposed to the nearby Westin? Usually a westin loyalist.

Need 6 Marriott nights to titanium (spend doesn’t matter). 1 - would any hotel manager cut you a deal? (Ie if 6 nights is 60k; let me pay 30k and get the nights and I won’t use the room?); 2 - where are cheapest Marriott hotels? I found 10k per night in burbs of Chicago? 3 - would any cheap Marriott let me run this scam remotely? (Ie call Abilene Texas, check me in without my showing up)

Has anyone ever gone out to the W Hotel on Capitol Hill? Is it like a bar/club? Do you recommend it?

Anyone have a special platinum Marriott support number or contact person to resolve a lingering issue?

Anyone applying for Chase Marriott Bonvoy Boundless card lately? I saw that they are offering 100k points again, but NO more 15 elite nights?

St. Regis Mardavall Mallorca Resort - anyone been and worth it?

I am about 100 nights away from reaching the lifetime grandfathered premier access, not sure if I can make it by year end. No longer on travel projects. Any tips? Any new updates from Marriott?

I got bumped back to platinum elite on both Marriott and SPG.. after being gold for a few months now (have been on a local project for a year now)
Strange.

Is there a thread of company discount codes? ISO Hilton code (do not judge me my BIL is getting married at a Hilton and his fiancé is going to go postal if we don’t reserve a room now)

Heads up: Hilton is giving triple points during July if you use their credit card for booking. Good opportunity to make up to 54 points per $1. Time to stack up those points! Happy monday! :D

Anyone know Salary for B4 consultant in London?

I got rejected for an interview from Big 4 NY Audit, even had referrals from Manager + level people. 3 years w/ audit senior at mid size firm, 2 years fed tax at big 4, and 1.5 years Internal Audit healthcare. Currently self employed for a year to work on investing. Do I literally need a partner level referral to get back into Audit? I thought there was an accountant shortage.

I made a couple errors at a new job. An important document to be distributed had wrong information on it, which was proofread by 2 other people. Then a couple of typos in emails, the person micromanaging me told me to send out but I didn’t fix the errors. Failed to meet a deadline but completed 95%. I was written up over all this last week, fired this week. There’s a lot more to this but I think it’s because the DM doesn’t like me.

I feel I'm doing very well (in the role and with comp $57 base + commission = ~$91k last year) BUT I feel stuck!! I'm feeling undervalued and unchallenged.

Any book recommendations for someone looking to get into a Product Owner / Manager role?

Told a friend of mine in tech I was considering moving to BCG. He asked me if I would have to move to Boston.

I followed up by asking what he thought the top consulting firms were. "I'd guess PwC and then McKinsey are the best. I've also heard of KPMG, Deloitte, and Bain, but I don't know much about them."

Just a reminder that outside our bubble no-one really cares about firm prestige etc.

Krispy Kreme’s recently gave out 1 free donut to any American that was willing to get a vaccine. That day they had a 300% increase in vaccinations. Of those 60% had previously said they’d never get the vaccine. A free donut changed their mind. America is super interesting... 🤦🏾‍♂️

Stupid question: do you get to alt-travel? Not fly home to your home office on the weekends, but use that budget to fly somewhere else?

How many of you have no plans and cringe whenever someone tells you happy holidays 😞?

Best & affordable places for a weekend trip? I am located in upstate NY for reference so recs that are drive-able or flights wouldn’t be insane
