In PwC AC, If you join you're expected to work on multiple projects at the same time. You get billability hrs every week for a particular project and beyond that it's really hard to get the hrs billable and you charge on bench/learning. Which will hamper your utilisation. Everyday if you're free, you need to ask manager that I've 2hrs free and how can I help you.
This much calculation of hrs feels like labourers and pathetic. How you guys are dealing with it? I've joined few month back

Hours allocated to do that work is always than the hours required to complete the work and all the people are doing that. I'm scared that if my utilisation and performance is not in line with this process how I'm going to survive here?
Will they fire me or Put in PIP plan ? Is someone gets fired for these reasons as I'm in probation ? I'm not able to adjust in this environment.

What the heck..!!

Hi fishes,

Had an interview with Hexaware and 3 days back HR1 called me and said she will send the offer letter next week. 2 days back HR2 called me and said a client interview is scheduled for you and I attended that. Now if I fail to clear the client interview round, will I not receive the offer letter that is promised by the HR1?

Here's the situation.
I'm a freelance accountant. I have several part time clients, and one main 30-40/hr/week client. This is about the big one. The company has two co-presidents, but for the sake of clarity I'll call the person I directly report to the COO and the other the CEO - note the CEO also is the founder of the company. Again, I report to the COO. The COO is "working" in exchange for greater equity in the company and a crap ton of pay along the way. Cont.
