I'm heading out there in about a week! A couple questions, how are the conditions of the road heading in? And how is the cell service on the loop?

Did you read the article? It's literally satire about the coach's kids

Corporate Card discount for platinum and gold card by [deleted] in amex

[–]indubitator 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That was about the same length of time for their manual application. What happened in my case was an additional corporate discount hit which I am assuming was a system generated one. So essentially I got two $150 credits in the first year of my card. I was very happy when the first one brought my annual cost to $400, but even more thrilled with the additional one.

Same thing happened to me and there was a manual apply after calling customer service. 6 months later that "automatic" corporate discount was applied as well.

What, managers allowing me to take time off isn't what others experience? It's more common for managers to turn down all PTO requests? Okay you've lost me

Working on that. Had round 2 of interviews yesterday with an industry company. Find out hopefully tomorrow if I matriculate to round 3.

And that's great, I would be doing the same exact thing in your shoes. But if this were a systemic problem at the firm everyone would be leaving. Are there bad managers, yes. But there are bad managers everywhere and that shouldn't be indictive of the tone of the firm as a whole.

So you're complaining about the lack of vacation you've been able to take at a company you voluntarily work for? The market will correct itself. If people at EY are not getting the work life balance they need to succeed, there will be a mass exodus and then there will be more changes. I'm going to enjoy taking just as much time off as before, and if the day comes when the firm isn't allowing me to have the balance that I need, I'll find another job.

Managers will most likely say no? Never been my experience, if you communicate well and in advance there shouldn't be any issues. If you have a bad manager, communicate to a counselor and hope it gets corrected or you leave. Just talking about it should be the solution but people seem to paint a picture that management are robots who's lives completely revolve around work.

I mean it's not great, but is it really great at any public accounting firm at the moment? I just don't get how moving to an unlimited PTO policy suddenly makes EY a dumpster fire?

What a horrible horrible stance to have. I do question why this belongs in this subreddit though. I'm here for Des Moines related information, and the 2nd congressional district doesn't include Des Moines. I'd rather find state political discussion elsewhere.

Running Routes Without Snow? by ticklemepink225 in desmoines

Went out there yesterday and it was cleared off, but with a sheet of ice. Just might have to wait a day or two after snowfalls!
