Stare at the screen and wonder when I’m getting fired
Push for chargeable work. When it comes down to it no one cares about the internal events
I’m at a MM firm but I’ve had conversations with people at Big 4 and seems like they do a mix of MM work on top of larger corp/PE clients. MM deal volume has still been significant at my firm, so it seems like you could still ask around to get staffed on that type of work in Big 4..but I could be wrong. Just a thought

Dont waste your time with non billable work. At the end of the day, you will be largely judged on it. You can search for another job in the meantime and have it line up just in case. You can also use your time to sharpen your knowledge on learning something else. Again dont be fooled by the non billable work it will not save if the hammer comes down.
