Does any firm pay overtime if you log more than 8/9 hours per day ? Uncle D puts everything in utilization :(

You are 'something' known as an exempt employee. No overtime for that

ACN does for lower/entry levels within strategy, not sure about other groups. We don't get to charge in extra hours to boost utilization. Straight 8s til I die.

Haha pwc1. Its not a joke. I'm just curious even though I know that 99% the answer would be NO.

We do if you are at the Consultant level (Entry).

I think if you're a peon level analyst you can get OT

PwC / S& does not

I believe Accenture pays out OT, not sure if it's based on 8 hour day or 40 hour week

^at least you get utilization! We don't get utilization unless we are charging hours (travel time does NOT count)

I get it at acn

Got it - thanks fishes.

Only like 5% of analys I know are actually allowed to charge OT

The Deloitte Canadian firm does for A&C. As a result you'll likely make more as a C than an SC.

I mean, I'll be honest, I try to encourage my underlings to stay at 40 hours. But I send em home, or tell them to work on plus one activities outside of my chargeable 40 hours...

A2, you need to book what you work. If you tell people not to book it, you are violating policies. This is one reason why projects always go over, since people ghost they don't know accurately how much to budget.

@EY1 maybe for you, but in the great white North we get OT even for travel

If your contract is Exempt Salaried there is no such thing as OT. I believe there are salaried non-exempt but it's not common in our industry.

I get regular pay ot as a professional courtesy, but it's not ot as far as the law is concerned

Interns get paid overtime. That's why they think they won't work more than 8 hours a day when they get hired 👌

Oh @A4 ... So naive. Clearly you've never sold a VBD or fixed fee gig

Hello, I am looking to make a career change that starts at a minimum 75K salary. The economy is tough right now and I can no longer afford to stay in my current role. I have a bachelors degree in Sociology with experience in managed care, utilization management, & clinical admin.. Does anyone have any suggestions for a possible higher paying career that I would be qualified for based on my background?

I’m struggling. I left an agency I liked last year due to growth limitations and since then I’ve worked at 2 different agencies and can’t seem to find my footing. The first one seemed like a good fit at first but then it turned out to not be the best place for me so I left. At my current agency I feel super undervalued. I’m always raising my hand and offering to help where I can and no matter what I do, I don’t feel utilized or valued or part of the team.It’s really taken a toll on my confidence
