Accenture reviews

Top management runs the place like it's their grandmother's company with total disregard to the policies put in place by Accenture. Still practice their old style of management pre acquisition. Disrespectful behaviour by senior management that put themselves at risk of legal action. Management are made up of old buddies and also a pair of husband and wife therefore they tend to look out for each other and cover up their mistakes. High attrition rate due to total disregard to work life balance and bad practices.

- Militaristic command hierarchy - Some training sessions includes brainwashing and indoctrination. - 85% of our new experienced hire orientation class have left Accenture within 2 years (which indicates a very peculiar staff hiring and retention strategy) - Career progression is designed to benefit "Accenture Babies" (i.e. employees who's been with the firm since fresh grads). - Strange and unique "culture" (see bigtimeconsulting.org to understand culture). - In order to gain rapport or possibly a promotion, the culture demands unwavering loyalty to your superiors and a lot of time & perseverance at work (whilst not necessarily being productive). - In IT client projects the majority of work are brainless, and these generally fall under two categories: 1.) data collection, and 2.) chasing people for task completion. Accenture can only sell low-skilled workforce & roles to clients who doesn't want to do themselves such as Testers, PM (Project Officers really), and Architects (not really Architects, as they typically love to copy-paste client designs).
