Usually some trailing administrative and catch up work post deadline but overall yes. Many will hit that PTO quickly post 18th.

It completely depends on what group they are in. For some yes, others may have quarter tax provisions, transaction work or fiscal year clients

Tax compliance maybe. But many areas of tax that don't follow 4/15 10/15 deadlines. And FY filers who aren't 12/31 also are different

My hours drop to 35

Post deadline I always take vacation, and when I come back my hours are usually around 20

Ya, keep it low key for a couple weeks until work starts ramping back up

4/30 provisions the last few years so no.

Not if you’re on the state and local tax team. Many deadlines past 4/15.

My busy season is just starting.

I’m a new manager and got added to a new engagement. Everything is overmy head. Usually I catch up within a month. But this engagement is very very different. It will take me a while to get a hang of. The positive is that there is a lot of learning. But I had goals of being a sm in a year or 2 and I don’t see that happening in this engagement. What do you guys think, should do? It’s a huge engagement so it’s room to grow. Should I just suck it up and try?
