Hi fishes! I had asked for benefits other than CTC which Bank of America provides & now that I've completed 1 month here, here's the list of allowances you'll be getting irrespective of position/band:
1. Sodexo: 1300 p.m./ 15,600 p.a.
2. Transport allowance: 900 one way, 1800 two ways p.m./ 21,600 p.a.
3. Internet: 1500 max p.m. (other than that, one time installation charges)
4. Tuition fee: Any certification related to your field. Like CFA, FRM etc. 3,00,000 p.a.

OP, stay on a project and you're good. we live and die by our ability to bill. Once you are on the bench, you are fair game for for being laid off.
P4, I think you would fit in great at Deloitte.
Anyone can get fired. An average performer is fair game once all the fat has been cut. So many variables go into it.
I will assume PD work since no one will enlighten the group
Definitely not joking. If your utilization is 80%, that means you're working an average of four days a week. When you consider that most projects keep you busy more than 100%, that means you're doing nothing MORE than 20% of the time. In years when I've had utilization in the 80s due to tons of bench time, my reinvest time would probably calculate out to like 40%. I genuinely don't know what you've been doing if your utilization is only in the 80s but you also aren't reinvesting.
Third EY1s question and 1.5 X EY2s statement
Pdubs sounds like an awful place to work.
P4, working and billing are not the same word. And 40% reinvest? WTF is wrong with you.
Don’t expect a top level rating without reinvest
P4 is crazy.
P4 is assuming you actually bill what you work.
If your performance sucks
80% and no reinvest? That's a ton of time doing nothing...
Second EY1s question
M just worried cuz i was on 6 weeks bench. Did some proposals and reinvest. Haven't done any since a couple months though. Current rating is average (3).
Reinvest is PD or firm development
What if your utilization is 105% and no reinvest?
You can always be laid off. It’s unlikely if you are currently staffed. Best way to get let go is to get kicked off a couple projects.
Atk yes lately.
Do people like you?
No you're 110% safe 90% of the time.
Jokes P4?
