Partner is supposed to cover for you in year end when that happens
You should be able to charge time to a PD code.
Do I tell the MD to email my CC about the scenario during performance reviews? MD won't be on the call
Performance reviews are coming up in a month too and I'll be on the bench for almost a month by then. PD code doesn't help chargeability unfortunately at Acn
Yes- be very careful op. I joined EY in Jan of 2016, and held for a role for 5 months. Not only the project never happened, but the partner actively blocked me from joining other project teams. When review came around in June, 6 months after I joined the firm, my rating was a two, for below avg utilization.
If you are getting held for more than 2 weeks, make sure your counselor and experience manager (or at least their equivalents at your firm) are aware.
Yes it sucks. I used some of my pto to lessen the blow but ask them to give you a code or something
We pretty strongly discourage it. Sold work wins is a pretty strongly adhered to mantra. Exception for a week or something but a month is a very long time!
@op: discussions are going to occur in the next few weeks so ask him to leave you a review on your performance page if he has a good understanding of your performance and ask him to reach out to your cc as well to explain your situation. But also the firm has been pretty strict with bench times these days from my personal experience
Ask your CC to reach out to him. Both for PA and for your general sanity. He won't do anything about getting you staffed (or a chargeable code) until someone starts making noise.
