Relatively new joiner, finished first project, how to get off the bench? I've tried contacting ppl in my group and staffing with poor results. Paranoid about worsening utilization/lay-offs.

See if you can help those in your group with internal work. Once they see good work, they'll spread the word/keep you in mind when staffing upcoming engagements, etc

What happens if I decide to take a full scope or be willing but after I join the company or project I get cold feet and decide not to? Do I just get let go or have dire consequences? I am being pushed by recruiter to get a FS but I am not sure. The backlog is huge though so maybe I throw the dice and learn a lot then leave before I need to if at that point I am not 100% in it?

Thanks

Something about me is both a curse and a blessing - I can't ignore what is not clear, logical, aligned, and simple.

This is what helped me excel at studies. At work, my obsession makes it hard for people around me. If people complain about me, should I just let it go or change my approach?
