How is utilization at PwC calculated? Have been told if I'm hitting my full capacity per week, it hurts utilization to charge internal codes like excess travel, g&a for other work, and training hours

(Chargeable Time / 40) is utilization (though I forget if that's for all 52 weeks or just 50)... anything non chargeable does not count against you but they may look at the total number of hours when it comes to CRTs (i.e. Reinvest/BD work) and compare against others at your level

like

No it's only per 40 hours.

8 codes don't count against you. If you work 40 hours / week with 0 codes, your utilization is 100%. Any additional 8code hours beyond that contribute to your overall "overtime hours" that they look at end of year, so definitely charge them!

I'll be in premium economy in an aisle seat. I usually take melatonin before bed and sleep on my side. Does anyone have suggestions for an OTC sleeping pill or pillow that actually works, or other advice for sleeping on a plane?
