It wasn't a choice, haha. In 2013 there was a big project that required (I think) a 1000 person team across the country so they pulled people from all service lines. I liked the research and analysis aspect of it, and you really were searching for instances of fraud, which we found in many cases. We were determining whether a major US bank had foreclosed on people's homes for unjust reasons. Got the people a lot of money they deserved as a result 😊.

I started at a new firm this year in January. I had a billable goal that was given to me mid year of around 1750 house for the year. I am nowhere near that and definitely will not meet the goal. I had so many non billable hours I was forced to take when I first came in. I worked my ass off in busy season. At my previous firm I never fell short of hours as it was B4. This firm is mid sized and more focused on WLB. My question is how bad do you think this will affect my comp??
