For those at non–Big 4 firms, how many clients are you usually handling at once? How much time and staff support do you typically get per engagement? Just trying to get a sense of what’s normal across firms.

Legacy Marcum, now CBIZ. I usually have 2-4 clients scheduled to me on any given week, but sometimes it's only 2 (particularly when both of them have a big crunch so I get 20-32 hours for each), though it's common to suddenly have extra work from other clients so I've had weeks where I've billed time to 7 or 8.

Our seniors have 1 job at a time scheduled and typically I would say 3/4 of their time each week is recorded to that job and the remaining time is used to catch up the recent couple engagements they are rolling off.

Two to three clients
