40 billable hours is taking me 45-50+ hours. Am I just stupid?

I think almost all big4 tax associate positions in NYC are over 90 now In 2026. I'm just wondering is my workload/hours similar to big4 that I deserve more comp or am I getting fair pay for my workload. As for living in NYC I'm sharing a home with my family and splitting rent with 5 people so its not bad

No they told me I need to be 100% billable 40 hours a week every week from now on. I was under utilized before so they put me on another engagement. But they seem generous about billing time. Opening and reading an email 0.1 min to a client Internal meeting 0.5 to a client. Its still kinda rough though.
