was bid as key personnel back in July on a GPS project. My utilization tanked, I looked elsewhere for a job. I recently found out in the same week that I was extended an offer for an outside company and that the work was finally awarded to Deloitte. Am I stuck at Delloitte now that we won the work or can I still take the outside job offer?Deloitte
