Talk to your career coach, and the tax practice leader. Communicate as clearly as you can and make sure there's a need for you in tax. They're doing you a favor because you'll be taking the place of a new hire/recruit, so be aware of that

Be open about your concern and instead of asking for a new job just ask for a rotation.

Hi Fishes,

I have close to 2 years of experience in web analytics and I have an offer in hand to work in the same domain. (Offer from a Big 4 and relocation)

I don't think I would want a career in this as I feel it would require coding at some point which I don't want to.

On the other hand, I'm looking to switch my domain into Product Management.. currently don't have any offer or experience related to PM role.

I'm confused if should I go with the offer in hand or wait till I get a PM role.

Am I understanding utilization rate correctly? It’s chargeable time over total time? Charged 40 hours and had 10 hours non-charge so my utilization is 80%? If so, wouldn’t it benefit me to understate non-charge hours so my utilization is higher since they only really care about chargeable time anyways? Charge 40 hours still but only put 5 hours non-charge for utilization to be 89% instead of 80%? Or am I misunderstanding how utilization works?
