Utilization is calculated off a 40 hour work week. 40*52*utilization target. If your target is 90% and you bill 45 hours a week then you technically only need to work 42 weeks of the year. That leaves 10 weeks for PTO, firm holidays and a little bit of bench time.

like

My target util is 95%, so I have 5 weeks where I can be not billing assuming 45 (most of my projects have billed 42). 2.4 of those weeks are firm holidays. I now have 2.6 weeks to take 22 days of PTO AND do proposal work AND find a new project AND do training/learning/helping initiatives in person.

I am in the process of IVF due to my husband's male factor infertility. I am so grateful for the benefits that EY provides and wanted to know if there is any consideration for reevaluating those benefits? We know that IVF is incredibly expensive and for some of us, having children is a top priority. Does anyone know where or how we can petition for enhanced or shared benefits? I have ideas.

If you do billable work on a given PTO/vacation day, do you still count that day as vacation? Or do you get that vacation day "back"? Or do you only get the part that you billed "back"? (Or some other option.)
