0306, still up, on the bench, practically no meetings on the calendar, ain't worried about nothin. Just kidding, please staff me

Need advice for resigning while on bench. I already have a start date with the new employer. Should I do a traditional two week notice or give <=1 week notice instead? My goal is to not burn bridges, but I also don’t want to get let go on the spot since I have nothing to “wrap up” besides HR tasks. I’ve read on here that sometimes they will let you go day of and pay you out for two weeks but I don’t see why any firm would do that for somebody not currently performing billable work...

First time on bench, work is slow due to summer, what should i do?

Long Post : I have a divorced female friend that I have known for over 15 years and consider as a sister. For the past couple weeks because I was on the bench and bored we talked about an hour+ often, especially when I am walking and need company. My wife went through my T mobile call history and mad because I'm talking to her too often and too long. She knows the friend as well and we all hangout on multiple occasions. Am I doing something wrong here? Or my wife is just insecure?

Day 1 on the bench and I’m already going crazy!

Anyone on the bench this week? Thanks

After 2 years I finally rolled off a stressful project and it feels great! My energy and my over all well being have significantly improved. This morning I feel like I’m ready to take on the world!

Acn people: Got a generic email from TFS taking about things to do when on the bench, it also mentioned we must now be in the local office everyday, legit or ignore?

Got staffed my first week in the firm, was expecting the overhiring to give me some quality beach time.

Got called Friday at 1pm saying I could only bill 10hrs next week and had to roll off after due to budget. Wow thanks its not like you had a budget excel sheet and could have told me this atleast...

Hey folks! Hope everyone is safe and sound. Who is working on billable work and who is on the bench ?

A President, who received 3 million fewer votes, gets to put another Justice on the bench after being confirmed by a Republican majority who represent 11 million fewer Americans than their counterparts, and 2 of those republicans were not elected by the people, but appointed by Governors. Explain to me again how this is a legitimate hearing?

Any Oracle folks from other firms interested in coming to play for Uncle D? I'm looking for people in Financials (EBS/PS/Cloud) and Supply Chain. Crazy strong pipeline, empty bench.

Contemplating going off on my Senior Manager.. maybe I can get rolled off that way?

Last night in NYC for awhile fam. Roll off is tomorrow. Gonna miss being here with y’all

I’ve been working at my job for nearly 2 years and I still feel like I’m getting the short end of the stick with billable work. For example, I’m constantly doing data entry even though I have a masters degree in economics. My bosses already know that I’m frustrated with the lack of opportunity but they say there’s nothing they can do, is it time to look for a new job?

My company did an analysis of the diversity of our outside counsel based on hours billed and spend. Women billed more than half the hours but were far less than half the spend 😒

Is there actual risk, not speculation, of the firm taking away bonus if you give notice after comp statement issued (Aug 26) but before paycheck deposit (Sept 6)? Has anyone’s bonus been taken back?

Is there any consulting companies in the US that sponsor new hires (for example data science consultants) for a H1 visa or GC?

Ladies, what do you do when none of your friends can afford to travel with you?

What salary did you find that you no longer had to worry about money? Basically you didn't have to think twice about buying something you want For reference, currently make 135k in a T2 city but am the sole earner for my family and also have 1200/month in student loans, so still feel like I'm not there yet.

Currently very underpaid in comparison to my peers, a cool position within my company (different role) opened up, I interviewed for it and got the job. This role is 2 levels more senior than my current role. How do I negotiate a higher salary if the company already knows how much I make?

i just fired someone today

During the panny, my agency moved a handful of us to a different office with no choice. Basically said we’d be fired if we didn’t comply. When we asked if we would ever have to move to the new city, we were given no answers for months. Now, they’re saying back to office in September and I have a feeling they’ll be expecting us to move. Should I ask for money to move? I personally can’t afford to and told them from the start I can’t move. Also, I really don’t want to leave my S/O. Help!

Are you supposed to expense Uber that you take out to a restaurant for dinner? I’m assuming not?
