What is an expected utilization by fiscal year end? I’m possibly up for a promotion but my utilization is at 88% as an A2. It’ll get higher in the next couple of months, but what’s a good target?

Check the placemats on the intranet for the targets. 88% is solid though.

It's about getting a quality work product out, not hours worked.

My group target is like 75% billable for staff per the placemat, but that sounds low. I also feel weird because I almost never work more than 50ish hours a week, but I hear about others working 60-70, so maybe my group is just laid back as hell.
