I'm so scared I'm gonna get a 4. 1st yr analyst: 1st project 2.5 mnths long and it was a shadow role. 2nd project was less than 3 wks due to client budget cuts; 3rd project was after the YE cut off ..

You're most likely fine. 1st year almost 100% 3's

Don't worry you'll be fine. First years will end up as 3s. The best part of our year end is the transparent feedback. Start thinking about the development opps and start building your network. I hate to sound like everyone else in the firm but your network makes you or breaks you in the firm. That's the only thing you have control over - your network.

What's your service line, OP?

Oracle

Unlucky. Try to switch to SAP or Digital.

If you were going to get a four you probably wouldn't been put on an improvement plan during mid year and your counselor would have more frequent check ins with you.

@d3 I didn't have mid year because I started in September

Oh, and my counselor sucks!

@D2 I actually want to switch my service line to TS&A or DD. And I'm switching office in like 3 months so I'm just gonna have to wait until then to get a new counselor

Errr has DD sold good projects?

M1: Yes.

Update: I got a 4 due to my low utilization that I had no control over. Great!
