So my utilization is currently low and EY announced they would be doing layoffs starting July 1. I've decided to apply to other places. I am currently in the process of getting my clearance (tbc)

No. You will need to be fully cleared or will start the process all over again.

What do you do in GPS that has your utilization so low?

False. I did it. 14 months into my investigation I moved to another company. The other company just opens their own investigation with a sponsor and when you leave the first company the two cases are merged into one and keep going. It’s not that deep.

But don't have my interim yet, is there anyway to get another company to take over my clearance process?

YES! I did it. 14 months into my investigation I had another company take over.

Where did they announce the would start doing lay offs???

I'm a Staff II

Fed stuff should be picking up as EY tries to get a slice of the stimulus administration bonanza. If your util is low now, there should be opportunities to get that pumped up. Are you on the bench now?

No I'm staffed but my project ends on the end of May, there is a possibility it gets extended but 🤷, I'm just taking precautions just in case.

OP you can move to another project. You'll be fine.

Just, talk to your counselor about everything (except you applying to other places)

Have I just had bad luck with the companies I've been at or is it like this everywhere? I've had 7 managers in my 4 years of experience, 3 in one year at my first position (which is why I left) and now 4 at the 2nd company in 3 years. There has been a mix of people leaving and people getting fired but the instability feels extreme.

Think of these as different roles and how many hours the job takes to be successful in it to make that amount in your W2. Working more will not make you more and working less gets your fired.
