Typical ACN timeline:
A -> C: 2-3 years
C -> M: 2-3 years
M -> SM: 3-4 years
SM -> MD: 3-4 years
Aggregate of A -> MD in 10-14 years with variability on both sides of course (E.g. My current MD did M-MD in 4-5 years). The race does start over again when you reach MD as we have 4 levels of MD (CL4-1).

The few people I know at Accenture did the jump from Analyst to Senior Analysts in 1 year. Is that similar to going from Staff to Senior or Staff 1 to Staff 2 at a big 4?

Hey Fishes,
Been working at D India as a Manager (Not USI) for past few months.
Ask me anything as there are very few reviews available online.
To clear few misconceptions
1. Global projects are available here
2. They've started mentioning Bonus, Gratuity amount etc in offer letter
3. Work life balance depends on Project and managers you work with
4. Inside opportunities if you're the creamy layer
5. PF amount in offer letter is the total deduction and not just company's contri

Question on UK visa-
My partner will be traveling often to London, once a month for an year starting September. He is getting his visa through work (10 years, multiple entry, 6 months max stay, cost some $1000).

I have applied for standard tourist visa in the past and they are usually short term. It could be max 6 months, but they see your itinerary and allocate you few months around the itinerary

Is there a way to get 6 months multiple entry visa, if I were to join him once in a while.
