Trying to book a Marriott stay with Deloitte corporate code for my vacation. However, if I enter the code, it's not allowing me to use my points. Is there a workaround. Disappointed with Marriott 😑

What D1 and I are saying is either use the points (which don’t change no matter who you are) OR use your corporate discount code if you are paying money for the stay. Those two options don’t crossover, there is no corporate discount for points redemption

Yes, just called the customer service and they said the same.

OP: did you think redeeming points for stay would involve less points needing to be used with the use of a Corp code? *face palm*

Speaking of double points that Hilton offers, does Marriott have that? Bc I never see promotions to sign up for.....(I recently transitioned as a Hilton Diamond member to Marriott)

It’s one or the other. You’re either paying less or not paying. Idk what’s there to be disappointed about. I get that you want to use less points to get nights and double up on value, but I don’t know if the competition offers anything similar to what you’re hoping for. I’d like to get more free nights like anyone else, but that doesn’t seem like it’s something to be disappointed about lol.

Got it, I felt the same initially. Since I’m relatively new to this whole travel consulting stuff

Not a Marriott fan or foe; seems obvious that reducing your nightly monetary rate with a Corp code wouldn’t help you if paying with points. Just seems obvious.

Note to anyone else in the Big 4 pitching against Deloitte... just show the client this post.

Partners - Do you ever take vacations?

I have been at my current firm for about 1.5 years, and in that entire time the partner in my group hasn't been out of the office a single time. Is that normal? I can't tell if it's standard for big law partners to not take time off, if the dynamics for my group may be different (only 1 partner in the entire group), or it the partner I work with is just a masochist.
