It depends on two things really: your boundaries and your engagement manager. We’ve gone through some big cultural revelations apparently, based on workplace feedback & now it’s really a priority - ppl not hating their jobs.

Will say, even before this I didn’t feel like it was that intense. Yes, I traveled every week, but beyond that most folks are reasonable (there’s always one). I think it’s because a lot of people, MDs included were previously apart the Deloitte and Accenture crowd and utterly hated that. Nobody anticipates the client will want us back every week ever. They’ve save soooo much money during the pandemic. And also, with new variants spreading as quickly as they are, I don’t see us getting on a plane until next Jan.

The key is - get YOUR MONEYYY, raises are unpredictable and promotions slow. So get everything you want up front. They have the money to give and they need YOU- don’t forget.

Do folks have trusted/valuable resources for researching luxury family travel with young kids? I don’t care the cost, I want to know what is most convenient and nice for my family. Feel like generally most resources are geared to either a) families on a budget (I don’t care which hotel is best bang for buck w/mid breakfast) or b) couples / adults only travelers. Do folks just stick to true five star hotel concierges for help? Do folks just book luxury tours like A&K? How do folks research?
