$12k is a lot more than the $9k I spent this year, and I'm sad about fewer systemwide upgrades that's what set EP apart

What's changing next year?

i made to platinum status because i have to take short connecting flights. segments were great for me. Now it won't be possible. And It's good that they added platinum pro level.

Revenue requirement isn't really an issue - tend to spend between $40-50k annually. Fly a lot of short, small, expensive routes so rev. based RDM is gonna be a nice perk (~10k miles a week instead of the 3k I get now). As long as they don't bump EP segment req. to 140 like DL Diamond, I'm good 😎

I have unlimited PTO but my SO is limited in time (but luckily he can work extra hrs and then use less PTO). I would say max we could do is 1.5 weeks but adding on 3-5 more days seems almost too much? Thoughts? For reference, I did Venice-Florence-Rome in a week and it seemed okay but it also wasn’t as planned out

Globant is more innovative, and has remote work. I will enter to work with a Sillicon Valley startup based in San Francisco. The tech stack is React, Nextjs, AWS, and a serverless architecture.

JPM is semi remote, and less innovative. The tech stack Java, SpringBoot and AWS. But I'd do more migration tasks, like dockerize projects and pass them to kubernetes. What would you choose?
