Q&A With Accenture Employees

Staggered. Some folks get paid well, others paid pretty poorly comparatively. I think it starts somewhere around $15/hour for level 12 and then $20/hour for level 10. 9 and up are salaried.

Pay for operations roles is similar to industry roles of the same level and scope. They tend to be the normal Monday to Friday job with limited or no travel.

It isn't enough for the amount of work given.

Anything digital -- AI, RPA, Machine learning -- is growing. Traditional management and technology consulting is flat.

Operations/ home equity is having difficulties

Fastest growing continues to be Digital and related capabilities and industries, especially analytics and Industry X.0. Slower growth are in areas like Traditional Resources and Traditional Retail.

This really depends on a lot more factors. Most teams have very good leadership, but some bad eggs slip through on occasion.

Spending too much time off the floor in meetings.

The Operations workforce and team is the closest thing to a non-consulting team at Accenture. Usually there is a focus on a particular process, so maybe there is less variety within the work and team.

The leadership is good. It will also vary from project to project and leader to leader. Some are better and stronger than others.

Operations team leadership usually comes from other workforces. They will operate much like the Consulting or Strategy leadership. Usually they are very capable individuals and team leaders.

Over worked

i think it’s great no difference between vacation/sick/pto time. You accrue hours each pay period.

Solve the employee turnover problem, our best talent is leaving

I'd keep more seasoned associates, let them have autonomy to do the right thing while using prudent decision making. Not all clients are the same. Exceptions can be made.

Re-train ALL leaders

Not for operations

Not for operations

Yes, it depends on the position, but I have worked remotely at Accenture for 5 years, with occasional travel to the client site.

Could be better. There are some internal roles where this is allowed. We are a client service company, so we need to be at the clients most of the time.

Even if the customer allows it, Accenture will turn you down so that they can look good to the customer.

Our remote work policy is very robust, with roughly 85 percent of our US people using telecommuting during the past year.

It can vary if on the west coast you can wear a Jeans with a formal jacket and formal shoe. Anywhere else stick to formal suit no tie.

Dress to impress.

A suit.

We don't have time to read up on the CEO

We don’t have time to read about or talk about

Mostly in shell shock

Devoted, caring, loving, family

Great people but totally stressed out.

TOXIC

OMG, redesign this survey

Terribly unstable

Separated

Divided

I don't work in an office and there are many offices.

That they overwork and brag to their clients what they can do when in reality, very skilled and seasoned associates are worn down and broken.

The uncertainty of it all

What the levels actually mean - titles are different here than in most places - now all of our positions are based on #'s - lower the # higher the position.

We work hard but encourage balance. You need to take control

I honestly don’t know now.

5 interviews with various leadership people.

Never got one. Was handed a job offer with one week to decide. My office was bought out

Already answered. Redesign this survey

We have none unless it's a meeting to let a group know they are being laid off

None

In Operations it's usually some sort of off-site activity - we've done boat rides, whirlyball, etc.

Working at Accenture is different than most companies. You will typically be on a project for a year or two, then move to a new project. You will typically change teams, managers, clients, etc... Although, it does depend on what you are doing there too, i'm assuming you are talking about being in the consulting side.

I don’t know. My office from a bank was purchased by accenture and we were given one week to decide on the job!!

I don't know. My office was purchased. We had one week to decide if we would take the job without any information about Accenture.

Bad ones. My interview was a sales pitch by Accenture to convince me to join them. It turned out everything they told me about the position they hired me for was a lie. The business unit did not have the sales numbers they told me it had. In fact, it had no sales at all. I was not in sales, but my success depended on growth in the unit, and that growth never happened because the unit had not even launched when I arrived.

None that I take advantage of

Benefits are good. Good pay, excellent bonus and stock, good health benefits.

I have my own benefits from my husband
