I’ve had at least 250 hours dropped from my schedule in 6-7 months, and there is ZERO open time to be picked up.

I know guys who have been active with the company for about the same amount of time who are just now breaking 700 hours. Obviously as a DEC, you’re going to work like a borrowed mule. I know CA’s who have bid for 75 hour min guarantee lines, and the company awards them 85-90 hour lines, along with junior assignments and extensions their QOL suffers.
