What is the benefit of high utilization % at PWC AC?

I joined last year and have utilization of 100%+. Wanted to know if pwc provides any incentive via hike/bonus % for this?

If NO, then going forward I will undercharge hours and get the utilization reduced to 50% or whichever is the min requirement. I dont see any reason to help firm earn more if I am not incentivized.

They just care abt the numbers and not about you. I have 150%+ utilisation since 2 yrs and had to put down papers to get a promotion and hike. Better think about your personal life

Its not about utilisation hours, but the impact you bring with your work. Anyone can put any number of hours in the tool.

Also i need to say this, if you have worked please charge your time. Don't eat it "coz your are getting nothing in return". If you charge less your are fucking over people that will be staffed after you as projected hrs will be less. And also it is not ethical and against firm policies

like

In that case I will reduce my utilization %. Don't want the firm to get earn more, until I leave.

Chargeable hrs are not everything, i have come across so many cases of people over charging for trivial work items regularly. Just because you have spent more hours doesn't mean your quality and quantity of deliverables is on par with expectations

I am getting good feedback on quality. But understood the point. Better to reduce the utilization % to 50% and get super feedback on quality.

I am looking to make a career change to HR. I currently make 75K as a sales and development coach. I had a recent offer for a state government position in a talent acquisition role but I’d be taking a $25K pay cut. I am extremely over qualified for the position but it could possibly be a stepping stone and gives me the time to acquire SHRM certifications and possibly start taking classes to get my MBA. My question is those currently in an HR role, would this move make sense to you?
