Accenture Capability Network is a scam !!

How is Accenture for experienced people who are not very good with programming and joining as a new person?

I joined Accenture two years ago, attracted by its reputation and brand value, particularly after being accustomed to a highly people-centric work environment at my previous company. Unfortunately, especially after the 2023 downsizing announcement, my experience has gone downhill. This message serves as a cautionary tale for mid-level professionals considering joining Accenture. Here's why: 1. *Lack of Peer Support:* Forget collaboration! Instead, you'll encounter individuals solely focused on protecting their own projects, making newcomers feel unwelcome and hindering efficient knowledge transfer. Simple tasks can become frustratingly complex, extending the learning curve from a reasonable 2-3 months to a staggering 8-10 months just to navigate the internal dynamics. 2. *Zero Leadership Support:* Inspirational leadership? Don't expect it. The prevailing "hustle culture" translates to rudeness and unprofessional behavior instead of empathy and understanding. You're essentially on your own. 3. *Favoritism Over Performance:* Leadership seems more interested in flattery than actual results. Seniority and "brown-nosing" appear to be the keys to advancement, not performance. Do minimal work but excel at buttering up your manager, and you're golden! Remember, this is just one perspective based on my experience at two large organizations. However, it highlights the significant impact leaders can have on shaping company culture.

Hi folks, Currently I am Senior Consultant (JL5A) in Infosys. CTC 17.5 L. Tech stack: Salesforce. YOE 7 I have an offer from Accenture for Job level 9 (Tech consultant). CTC offered is 30% hike. I have good ratings, RSU and decent work life balance in Infosys. Is it worth it to switch? Is the role offered in Accenture good as per my current role?

I want to share my experience as a fresher at Accenture, my first company from a college placement. The first six months were fine, but then I faced severe mental harassment from my supervisor and manager. She constantly criticized my work and gave negative feedback, causing me immense stress. I often skipped meals and worked weekends to improve, but nothing helped. Despite reporting the issue and requesting a supervisor change or a different track, my requests were ignored. The harassment worsened, affecting my physical health, and I couldn't eat or sleep properly. My manager controlled trivial aspects like where to sit and whom to talk to, making the situation unbearable. I was even forced to switch from a developer role to a tester, despite being trained as a developer. The final straw was being placed on a Performance Improvement Plan (PIP) without a clear reason, with the same harassing individuals assessing me. I only had 1.9 years of experience then. I reported the mental harassment to HR and resigned due to deteriorating health, panic attacks, and weight loss. Despite having no other job offer, I couldn't continue. Even during my notice period, I was forced to complete PIP assignments, which led to suicidal thoughts and further health issues. Now, I am jobless, feeling helpless and frustrated. With less than 2 of experience, I struggle to find offers in a down IT market and don't know what to do next.

So During our scum calls with client my manager gives update for whole team himself and doesnt let us update on the task which we have worked on ourself . Mf just grabs all the glory in pursuit for good feedback from client side meanwhile he does nothing technical and during internal meeting he says you guys should speak more with client and ALSO he ask for everyone's update on task before scrum and then pokes why is it not done even on task whose estimated completion date/time is far away. So annoying and frustating . Just a rant from your average software dev . Do give any solution you might have . 🙂 Thanks for reading.

I have got two offers, One from MathCo (Data Analyst) Bang location, other is Accenture (ASE) Pune location. Salary wise almost same only mathco gives 20% you hike. Which to join? My current location is pune so savings wise Accenture is better option but roles wise mathco is giving data science role. So bit confused which path to choose?

My manager has told me that I will not get an appraisal at all. This is because I did not have enough billable hours. What do I do? I was on bench for almost 6 months and I thought chilling is nice but this could potentially ruin my career as I can't find a job anywhere else. Should I try switching to Infosys, Capgemini, Accenture etc? Can anyone tell me what these companies are like?

Hey people working in Accenture, can we see how many of you got increment /promotion in June Cycle. I am currently at L11. I was at least expecting some increment. My manager told us that nobody got increment. Only people who are promoted got it. They are giving the same excuses every cycle. Do you think if we can/should raise our voice for the same. I don't know what to say when they just throw these kind of excuses at us. It literally is the worst company to work for. I am so done with Accenture. There are no rewards for you even if you do a good job, so better don't do it only.

I have 4 companies to offer please help me decide which company to go. Tcs -23 TechM -26 Chubb 27 lpa Epam 29 lpa

It has almost been 18 months since I have joined TCS. I was on the bench for a total of 5 months in the beginning, and finally got a project. I went to the office and my manager told me that it would take few days for document verification and security clearance. I was coming to the office daily but had nothing to do. I was getting anxious since I was just watching Youtube videos for almost a month. I wanted WFH but when I asked they said I had to come to office even if I had no work. Finally, I got a KT from someone working on the project. I came to realise that I was doing work that even a 9th class student can do. The problem? 5 people were doing this work. The problem? I was working 30 minutes a day. I had to come early to the office, login using my seniors login creds and do timepass work. I have to send an email to our point of contact at the client side that the work is done at the end of the day. I have learnt nothing here. I feel that these companies are just too inefficient. I am planning to leave ASAP now. I have learnt nothing and I am scared that I will not find another job because I have the Years of Experience but no skills. This is how IT companies destroy your career. Now I am doing DSA to get into another company.
