I really enjoy the work. PEPI Manufacturing group has a really good culture, leadership team and highly utilized, which at A&M means pay is good.
WLB wise, be ready to travel a lot. Hours strongly depend on project (eg Diligence vs implementation), but I almost never work weekends or very late nights. It’s still consulting and not 9-5

Manufacturing is known as a great group with good leadership. Projects vary substantially and heavy travel is expected on most projects.

Weekend work is limited but does happen and weekend travel can occur depending where you live and the location of your project.

Have not heard many people say anything negative about the manufacturing group other than the travel and often high intensity projects.

Any B4 IAM consultants make the move to Accenture? How is the talent experience (employee apps for time & expense, expense/travel policies, well being subsidy, stock options, etc) compared to what you’d find at D or EY? How do you find the quality of projects, and your role as a SC (which I understand is just “Consultant” at Accenture)? Worth making the jump or do you miss B4 life?
