Matches typically give you a trial three month period to book x amount of travel to keep the status

Caveat: I won’t be traveling weekly until about May

No one will give you 5 months of free status with 0 flights booked.

United Silver comes with getting Marriott (and now SPG) Platinum status if you link your accounts. If you have status there that would get you Silver on United

Alaska does a direct match of current status, valid through the end of 2018. Yeah it's Alaska but hey better than nothing!

Discussion post: I feel almost all consulting firms are the same. Mbb, big 4 etc. if you are paid enough there is probably less wlb. If there is good wlb there is not much money. Can you single out a company that you can confidently say pays very well and also has good wlb and also has good opportunities etc.?
