SPG. What take SPG over top besides better brands / upgrades for platinum is the fact that it is a transfer hub points wise. Similar to chase / Amex / citi credit cards, SPG allows you to transfer to 50+ airlines

Have heard SPG may match Platinum for Spire Elite at IHG -- but do matched statuses have fewer amenities?

How many nights to get the Spire Elite at IHG? Does it take less than the SPG 18 days Platinum challenge?

this is a no brainer...spg....bc you get both marriott and spg

Probably will take fewer than the 18 for spg, yrs

Received a verbal job offer on Tues. $5k short of what I had said was my desired range but still up from my current salary. We set up a call for Thurs to discuss further. On Wed they sent me all benefits info. Thursday on the call I asked if we could either increase moving stipend or get closer to my desired salary. They said no, and I asked them to send over written offer and I would let them know by Fri. They then email they are no longer offering me the position and repost it the next day:
