Been on the bench nearly a month doing internal work because project I'm reserved for keeps getting pushed. How do I get out of this and get on something chargeable?

Are we really struggling that much? I feel like all I see is PwC people complaining about the bench but I'm staffed 100%.

Been there, OP. Push for a new short term project to get the ball rolling. In my case, that other project never took off, so waiting any longer would've been a waste.

Yea guess it depends what area you're in

@P1 what practice are you in? Maybe it's just demand in certain practices

My group is really struggling. No projects

Same as D1, not that it's the general case but my project I was promised for never kicked off. Try to find something else in the meantime, hopefully the stars will align later.

P3 what group?

New Services and Emerging Tech

I've never heard of that group...

P3 - It's just a new name for a part of tech consulting in FS

@P3, which NSET are you in? From what I see, NSET 2 is doing just fine...

C1 - NSET2 haha

PwC and its fucked up organizational models

Our group is understaffed. MC FE

For those not staffed for "months" is it too much to give your bonuses to us working 70+ hours a week?
