Accenture Strategy folks, how rough is the up or out culture? Considering a role but have never experienced up or out culture. Would be coming in as a C2.

I’d say we probably have an extra year of runway at each level compared to pure strategy firms but it’s real. Also up or out doesn’t mean you have x years at level, you still need to progress at the end of each year as a consultant.

Definitely enforced. We have an expert track that people can go to if we'd rather not lose you but the promotion points are real

Cool, I guess I meant how aggressive is the culling so to speak? What I am trying to figure out is it folks who are pretty obviously not a fit? Or are there times where really solid people get cut because competition is so stiff?

My experience is that when it comes to looking for people who aren’t progressing it’s not solid performers who get marked as not progressing. Promotions may be a different. You need to show you can perform at the next level rather than be a solid performer at current level. As with anything I would also expect it to be partially driven by business demand.
