My impression is no. Most ppl average 65hrs a week which seems lower than big4?

Haha not from what I've heard on here. Firmwide average is ~55/week

Seems pretty similar based on responses here.

55 feels right. Anything more is a sprint or just inefficiency

B4 hours seem to vary quite a bit. My teams average 40-45 billable hours per week, which is a busy week when you add travel and the internal stuff. Would an incremental 10-15 hours be worth 40-50% more pay + better exits + more prestige? For most people here, probably yes

50-55 average for me. Easy weeks 45, toughest weeks had 70-75 with coast to coast travel on top of that

55 should count travel.

Yes and depends on what you value. @2 travel only counts if you're working...

Depends on the case. I've probably averaged ~55 (incl travel), but I've also done some DDs with...well...longer hours than that.
