After 25 days of rigorous follow up got my offer letter with location changed , I have few questions from the recently joined folks


1. After joining in how many days do we receive laptop

2. Is it mandatory to join office from day 1, i actually want to wfh from my native in initial 2 weeks and than come to Hyderabad (base location)

3. Most of the IT companies have Christmas breaks and client on leave during end of December, is it happening in Accenture as well?

Level :8
Experience: 12 years

Hi
I am facing same issue. Offer letter received 2 days back only but base location is different what I asked for.
HR said to me you can wait for 7 days before accepting this offer letter we will provide you with location changed one.
But reading your experience it took 25 days for you to get your location changed!!! Did you accepted the offer letter before receiving the one with location change?

like

No ,my hr was good and she herself told i wouldn't recommend accepting offer letter without desired location or else you will be responsible, and i also know cases where it took 40 days for people to get location changed and mine was quick

Just imagine without accepting the offer letter they are taking this kuch time to change , what would happen if you accept and than ask for location change- do not ,I repeat do not make this mistake and keep patience

@author Thank you for sharing your experience.
People still fall for a recruiter's promises, thinking they can accept an offer now and change later. It's a huge trap.

They're just meeting their targets, nothing more. They don't care whether you join or not. I’ve seen many cases where people had to relocate from another state or city due to various reasons.

No matter how much lound noise you make and tell people not to fall for this trap, there will always be some impatient fools , and like you said the hr only fulfills their location wise recruitment budgets

1) 1st day itself
2) yes from office later you can ask for wfh
3) No Christmas break, this happens only in big four companies

In how many days I get project assignment?
