During your work at client’s site, I believe most companies are like IBM, pay you the per diem. Anyone has other method like based on actual expense?

Defined by the MSA we have with each client. Some are actuals with limits (like my current client), others are per diem.

Very common at other companies for per firm to be as incurred.

Yep we are actuals, with a daily cap. Cap can be extended under certain conditions with approvals etc

EY is actuals without lunch :)

Actuals; no limit

EY Canada is actuals with daily cap. For international projects, just actuals.

Looks like I am wrong. Most use actuals. What is the typical daily cap? The per diem here in the US is 40-70, depends on location

Actuals. No formal cap.

OP, actuals will be much higher than per diem across the board

Current project is actuals with no formal limit. Depends on the client. Pros and cons to both - actuals is nice because you generally eat better, but you can usually spend less than the per diem and pocket it if you want

Throughout my career, I have worked at both “traditional” and “digital” shops. My current agency would fall under traditional but also offers digital services. Our process, roles and skillsets seem way outdated but I wasn’t sure if it was just my opinion or if this is just how it works. For example, we have no CTO or tech leads. Our digital producers feel more like project managers than actual producers. Account Management is just traditional, no real digital knowledge. Feels layered and dated.
