So I came from another big 4 right and all in the name of “we want you to learn our methodology” they’re having someone below me review my work. Doesn’t that create a friction in the future if I want to review that persons work as a senior?

It shouldn’t. They are helping you learn how they do things. Once you know that, your reviews will be for technical accuracy and helping them grow. You can learn from many people, regardless of title.

This person has experience you don’t have. Be gracious and learn from them.

Put your ego aside. They know more about the process, you should know more about the technical aspects of the work. Treat it as an opportunity to learn from each other. You should view it this way with your direct reports. They're on your team bc they can bring value, not just a robot to blindly do what you tell it

Can someone explain how billable hours work? At a new agency and although I had to fill timesheets at my previous agencies, they were mainly used to ensure we weren’t over servicing a client/for setting the appropriate retainer for contract renewals. I asked ppl at my agency but haven’t gotten a proper explanation. I get the impression that billing to the agency admin code isn’t recommended, and my manager said he bills everything to client codes, but that doesn’t make sense to me .
