At PwC how long does it take for requested vacation time to be approved? And are you guarenteed to get that time off if you’re not assigned on any jobs/it’s in the middle of June?

In my group you just tell people when you’re taking off and mark it on the calendar. Nobody really cares as long as you’re not taking time off during like the 3ish months we’re super busy. Sounds like “requesting” time off is more about an individual group’s staffing policies rather than the firm as a whole, so I would ask around in your team.

If you have the time accrued, and you are not staffed on a job there shouldn’t be a reason to deny it. Put in in early though. I put in 5 weeks starting in August last month. I wasn’t staffed on a job and I’ll have the time they approved it the next day.

Depends...if you are staffed on a job and you are taking 1 or two days vacation and your team approved it you don’t need to make a request. But if you are not on a job for the time period I def would. If you don’t they could put you on a job and then you will need approv

Hey Boschlers,
Is tomorrow holiday??

Burnout is because you did something consistently for an extended period. You can do quick fixes like go on vacation, get some sleep, exercise more. But they may only help temporarily, depending on your level of Burnout.

Try adjusting your approach to work / life to a more sustainable, and ideally, enjoyable balance.
