Only if you were on a utilization granting internal project

No.

Ok. For Chicago GM, no.

I'm supporting an internal project part time, so my standard utilization is about 10% lower than my adjusted

Depends on the initiative and the story your counselor tells at consensus.

Misunderstood the question. From my counselor, YE ratings are very much about "impact" right now, so if you accomplished something impressive then it doesn't matter. If you were "support" on an initiative that didn't do anything then it looks bad

It's one of the highest visibility initiatives going on atm and I'm supporting a few of the workstreams (I'm an analyst)

I want to get my PhD, but all of the programs I want require a full time commitment for the first year. What are my options? Is a sabbatical an option? Or would I have to straight up resign? Utilization notwithstanding (I’m a GPS consultant)…is it possible to go part time? I completed my master’s full time while a full time Deloitte consultant. I know school can be done, but for PhDs they usually want you to also work as a TA. Additionally, I am not interested in online programs.

I’m up for promotion this year, and I’ve been working so hard and my feedback is amazing and I’ve wanted this for awhile. Now, an immediate relative is actively dying and I may go out on a short leave, and I also have some PTO planned so that I can visit family oversees later this fall. With all that’s happening, I’m not going to hit my 90% utilization target, which is a checkbox in my promo. (cont).
