It’s crap, huge expansion strategy to get as much talent as possible. Once they’ve got it, they don’t know what to do with it. Of the cohort o joined with 70% of us are on the bench and many are already thinking of leaving. If I could do it over again I wouldn’t join. Heard much better things about Deloitte.

Op, it depends with your practice, your tracks etc. if they put you in client facing role, usually no weekends, some nights but not weekend. If you gonna be sales plus delivery, then life can be hell at times. I knew a SM working 18 hours a day but he was making 250k base as new hire( don’t ask me how I know, I saw his total regards page when he was presenting something else to show me . Dude was making double of my salary.

I’d avoid Accenture at all costs! They’re paying you a huge jump because it’s toxic once you get here.

That’s weird, I’ve heard exactly what you’re describing at ACN happening at Deloitte too 😂 I guess everywhere sucks. You just gotta pick which sucky culture you want to deal with

Deloitte barely has a bench in commercial. You’re only on the bench if you suck and you’ve been shunned

I'd second what DD1 said. Commercial at Deloitte is spread super thin, especially in the manager/Senior manager ranks

Good points... not that the PwC culture is mind-blowing but I just want to check on what the culture at ACN is like and if anyone can compare PwC’s with ACN’s.

OP, what's your current position and what is Accenture offering?

Ya really depends which group you’ll be jn

As I’m sure you know it 100% depends on your project if you get weekends free. As a SM though, you would probably be dictating the cadence of the projects you were on...

Great info, thank you all, very helpful

Leave, and don't look back

Sheesh how seriously underpaid were u at pwc? What are u currently making and what level?

What group are you at within PwC?

A9, really? How so? Currently looking at opportunities at Accenture so lmk if I should look elsewhere! lol

My performance reviews have been stellar, but my manager is starting to look to hire a senior to help me deliver projects as we do lack capacity right now.

I feel like I might be missing an opportunity to ask for a promotion and hire a junior instead.
