Yes bill rates are generally the same across PEPI

Can you explain both options more

Check for average utilization. CFOS has been sold out for as long as I can remember. Not sure if commercial is equally busy.

Nah, we have a ton of SAs on the bench and unless you want to do interim management, clients aren’t super happy paying SD rate

Go for SD
