Very up or out mentality. And don’t take that lightly. It’s intense. You’re expected to be able to sell business and lead projects at the same time

How about within Supply Chain and Operations within Accenture Strategy? What’s the culture there?

Accenture 2 - it’s a mix. From the conversations I’ve had with them it’s basically helping clients think about where they can leverage analytics (AI, robotics, machine learning) in their existing eco systems to transform the way they do things. In some instance this service line does work with other service lines.

Hey - enterprise analytics is apparently under CFO/EV in Strategy. Just googled the posting.

Strategy is a good group, but it can be hard to carve out and align at that level. SM is partner track, but you could easily be pushed to non-partner if you can’t make the right alliances. You should push the importance of analytics and working cross functionally with strategy and digital’s Accenture interactive group to plan analytics needs, but also be able to deliver those needs to the client.

A7- very nice display of our culture calling your colleagues “idiots “ smh

Will REALLY vary by function / industry within Strategy- have found the culture to be shockingly different based on this
Reiterating A2, is there a certain type of work you’re looking to get into here?

It will be Enterprise Analytics under strategy umbrella. Manager/Sr Manager level.

Enterprise analytics? Hm this seems like a support function to strategy?

Sounds like digital strategy not strategy strategy

I don’t think the up or out/challenge of strategy is necessarily a bad thing or unusual for strategy practices. Talent is always gonna be stronger in strategy so the pyramid will be harder to climb

What is the pay for M though?

Congrats on the offer OP, I'm a consultant in that group and honestly loving it. We're a new group in Accenture Strategy under CFO&EV. SMH at all the idiots saying things like it sounds like a support function - have you not heard of NEXUS?
