how do you guys maintain energy during busy season? I feel like I am always tired and still have lots to do.

Feels odd that she is no longer here. I just wish she could have had a better future.

I’m wondering if not paying bonuses is common to federal contracting because of how the contracts or priced, or if this is something unique to Booz Allen.
