It is a very wide question. ACN Italy is...peculiar. very strong company with high numbers and moreover incredibly high market share, because in Italy we are used to build "relation business", not transactional one. I dunno if this makes sense to you, however the takeaway here is to come to Italy if you enjoy making a "people business" and navigate politics, the other side of the coin is that you will HAVE to deal with people also on a personal level (Italians are expansive and indeed relationship-based culture)

Yes, it is peculiar as in freemasonry. ACN strives to get their people hired by customers to improve the probability to get sustainable revenues every year.

Once, an ACN manager (I worked for the competition on a budgeting project for a leading Italian banking group) told me that I must always reserve them at least 20% of the client budget for big data projects.

Strategy in banking industry yes... consulting NO

NO

Why? Can we further discuss?

I’ve joined strategy recently and I’m liking it well enough. The pay could be higher but the hours are very manageable.
