I've worked at the same engineering firm for 4 years. I'm currently making $161k with only a $750 bonus, but excellent vacation (4 weeks, cash out anytime, rolls over indefinitely), 45 hours a week. I have an interview with a recruiter at Guidehouse this week for a Technical Project Manager role. It seems to be focused in the government space and requires a security clearance. What sort of salary and benefits could I expect for this sort of role at Guidehouse?
Amsterdam 4 day holiday recommendations?

*Affect.
@OP - firm holidays do not affect utilization but PTO does.
@mithrandir - yes that's exactly what they are telling you.
Effects
Negatively impacts like being on the bench
That doesn't make any sense. So they are giving us vacations but telling us if we use them it will hurt our performance?
The way the firm looks at it, your utilization targets include your vacation allowance into the calculation. With respect to firm holidays, that time (as well as "Lost Time") is removed from the denominator. So it doesn't hurt your utilization. But, again, that is already figured into your target by staff level.
Basically save all your vacation in promo years and use all of it in non-promo years.
Technically should improve utilization as denominator gets reduced
Firm holidays too?
So worst case, no impact
Your annual target hours include holidays, pto, etc. your target billable plus hours over standard equates to like 48 weeks of 50 hours of work with the other time covered by holidays pto etc. that said if you roll over a years worth of pto then take 3 years worth in a single year you'll be off pace.
This thread is funny. Ohhh newbie
