Assuming you're talking about the current promotion, maximize it while you can, even if the Sheraton is shitty, and once it's over go back to whatever is nicest. No brainer imo. I'm barely ever in my room anyways and won't remember in a couple months when I'm staying at the Westin Maui with those points.

Ritz. Once you pass a million points, the game gets stupid.

Depends which Sheraton but probably Ritz

What about staying at a shitty Sheraton (3x points) with 30 min commute vs new aloft (2x points) with 10 min commute?

Shitty Sheraton. Aloft is a college dorm room. Sheratons at least usually have exec lounges.

If it's just for work (vs vacation) take the Sheraton and the extra points. How much are you really going to be in your room anyway?

On a track for promotion for Q1 but feeling burnt out and like I can’t manage the workload in order to make that happen. I brought this up to my manager and she said “well we probably won’t be able to get you the promo until Q2 then in order to get all the data points needed”. Her point is pretty accurate, but am I crazy to slow down for my mental health and sanity at the expense of delaying promo by 3 months?
