But what is the bench policy in general ? Say for a GCM 4 resource ?

How many days they can keep on bench, regardless of whether we are getting project calls or not ?

If the Layoff season is going on, I've seen billable people being released and asked to resign before their bench period starts..

So, there's no definitive answer, but yes, 3-4 weeks is safe on bench usually..

Bench policy is the same, irrespective of past projects and performance. If you are in management’s good books, you might get some preferential treatment. Otherwise, it’s all the same.

It doesn't depend on whether you are 200% utilised or 100% utilised. If you are on bench you are just a 'bench resource ' and you need a project allocation to be safe simple.

Bench is bench.. 1 day Or 2 months..

Even if we are billable from past 5 years, HR sorry to say doesn't have that empathy or analytics.

They just see the head count.

I’m a new analyst at a PE firm, and my associate keeps blaming me for things she does wrong. Like she will tell me I made the wrong change, even though she is the one who changed it. Or in calls with other people, she won’t take responsibility for things that she told me to do that the other person calls out as wrong. How can I handle this situation without making her mad but also not letting her step all over me?
