I was on the bench for 2 straight months. It was glorious. I went on vacations and when I got bored, decided to do some certs on Accentures dime. I got promoted that year.

I’m pretty sure Accenture is notorious for laying people off when on the bench

Get staffed ASAP. You get your full salary, but you get let go after 6wks I think.

How does the company help place someone on other projects?

Golden rule is, don’t be on bench for too long.

Having said that, I’ve seen people being on 8 months on the bench before let go. The minimum I’ve seen is 3 months, but I’m sure there are examples of shorter timeline. It depends upon multiple aspects.

Depends on your level. The higher you’re the more dangerous for you for being on bench.

Hey guys… I’m a case worker in child safety and I’m someone who loves being outdoors/dies at a desk all day. I’m hoping to organise that at least once a week I can go to a cafe and catch up on all my case notes that need to go into the system.
So far the only reason I’ve been told no is that “if you do then everyone will want to and then no one will be in the office” … how can I convince them that I work better out of the office and get this freedom & mental break for myself?

Hi 👋. I posted here a few weeks ago about being nervous conducting a PIP conversation with my team member.
I did it this week and let me just say it was the weirdest conversation ever. The guy is usually argumentative and tries to disprove every bit of feedback. But this time he just sat there and asked no questions and said nothing.
Maybe he’s looking for new jobs already - don’t mind this at all and this would be a good outcome for him overall.
