Be confident! Consulting is not a panacea for a career but the fact remains that you get exposed to more environments faster than most people in operating companies. You get world class training, access to thought leadership and they hire for ability to perform in corporations. PWC hires a lot of people and they can't afford to have too many catastrophes so I am sure you are amazing.

From consulting you are totally marketable. If it's time to go then have confidence in yourself and do it. You will be fine, after all making it into consulting is competitive. If you can do this, there are TONS of things you can do. Probably more than you can even think of

Am I understanding utilization rate correctly? It’s chargeable time over total time? Charged 40 hours and had 10 hours non-charge so my utilization is 80%? If so, wouldn’t it benefit me to understate non-charge hours so my utilization is higher since they only really care about chargeable time anyways? Charge 40 hours still but only put 5 hours non-charge for utilization to be 89% instead of 80%? Or am I misunderstanding how utilization works?

So i have been fortunate that i have managed to go through my career without the need for a degree. I was lucky enough to have been hired by one of the worlds top consulting firms, worked with a whole lot of big clients and travelled a lot. It's gotten to the point where I am not even asked about the lack of a degree on my resume. Personally though, it bothers me. I have a whole bunch of certifications in my industry…but just no formal degree. (cont'd)
