It's not just speculation for non ifcs. We had a training on Tuesday from ppmd down to lead all these new COVID-19 projects we've won

Confirmed that schedulers will be using 50-55 hour weeks as the norm when identifying and allocating personnel hours in ARMS. This applies to all personnel, not just IFCS; however, it is due to the influx of IFCS work. People who have not historically been IFCS are being asked to help on new jobs.

What is IFCS work?

Maybe. 55 hours in arms happens for some audit engagements and other projects in the past. I would expect this situation to be more of a marathon than a sprint. Will depend on level too

I heard that it was going to be for IFCS specifically as they work on the COVID19 response. That being said at some point we will all probably we working on that.

Slow down? There hasn’t been any real investigations work for years.

No but I can confirm the same for other firms

I was recently laid off from 7 yrs in public co audit and have been casually considering a pivot to forensics. Is an out of nowhere 55-hour mandate common? Or is this purely a response to COVID? What if you already had PTO scheduled?
