Can someone please tell how project allocation done for lateral hires in Accenture for Microsoft Azure PaaS? they said this is not project specific interview, you'll in pool after joining and assigned project based on joining time. I heard Accenture has zero bench policy for laterals and famous for layoff. Should I be worried? Please explain.

Policies are designed based on market..no as such written policy on bench or firing..
In current scenario, plenty of project..
Yes you will be in pool or higher chances of being soft lock close to two weeks ago before joining..
Firing is only of bottom performance..

Firing doesnt happen easily. You dont need to be worry. In this time demand is very high. Within the week of your joining you will definitely get a project

thanks. that's a relief. being on bench or pool is a curse these days.

thanks for the insight. there is too much negetive reviews of Accenture that makes me scare what if I couldn't find project.

I have also accepted offer from Accenture for Azure paas and they told me same its not specific to client its for pool.
