Hi! I’m doing some research on employee benefits (medical insurance, 401k, HSA/FSA, commuter benefits) and was hoping to connect with People specialists or HR professionals in the comp & benefits space.

Hadn’t noticed this sub before, and most of the threads are old so thought I’d ask a follow up - how has everyone been handling parenting with public accounting? I’ve got a toddler and my wife is an accountant (industry), and we only have a few immediate family in the country- but they have health concerns. Busy season was rough, things are looking better now as things return to normal. Still working crazy hours if you count the daycare duties on top of utilization targets.

How does it feel to earn less than US Consultants while also struggling for utilization

6th year in US. Credit score 815. How do people hit 850? Here are my stats:

1 car loan since 2017 credit history
5-8% cc utilization
100% payment
2 credit cards in total (BoA and Discover)

Thoughts on burning additional client hours (I.e. over 45)? My mindset is that it is better not to piss of the M/ P who will be conducting your review than to have utilization of 120%+

How's everyone's utilization metric doing rn? Just gauging. I don't feel like I'm doing so hot and I'm kinda worried.
