Is this a new thing at accenture? One extra PTO day essentially?

Yes

So you can pick whichever day you wanna take during the year?

You just have to use them as full days vs PTO balance which you can take as individual hours.

I tried resigning and my company really doesn’t want to take no for an answer and is trying to offer to have me move to another team or make some sort of counter. However, I know I won’t accept the counter bc the culture has been so bad for my mental health and have already accepted another offer. Struggling how to be firm on the no with this! Any tips would be greatly appreciated!!

Deloitte question. I have always gotten a raise each year, the only question I ask is how much of a raise do I get. But I’m hearing from former Deloitte folks, it is naive to expect annual raises each year however small/big they are? And how does this play in Deloitte consulting vs advisory? Do one tend to withhold annual raises in base salary over the other, or is this just a deloitte culture thing? Looking at exit opportunities all over. So lmk! I’d Rather get a small raise than none at all.

Lastly, I’ve seen quite a big salary range for MBA hires. Anyone care to share the latest? TIA.
