Should I still look out for better ?

In short - I am very confused and nervous.

Are ppl worried about being on the bench esp when there aren’t a lot of projects in the pipeline?

Is it actually worrisome to be on the bench in this environment or is this just a product of highly ambitious over achievers worrying about not being constantly utilized?
