Going to get surgery in a few months and will need 2-3 weeks to recover before I can go back to work. Should I take PTO or is there some other way I can take time off? What's the policy at Accenture

Call HR, short term- long term disability is standard. Easy enough process they should walk you through what they need and your doctor will have to fill out a few things. Take all the time you need nothing we do is life or death. I had to take disability leave when I was with another firm easy and made recovery easier because all I had to do was sleep and Netflix.

Are you on a project? I basically only took a week off for my surgery because I was on the bench. Did a lot of learning activities. Completely drugged up but still...

I had shoulder surgery and got 3 weeks of short term disability. Look it up under the policies, it's handled through Cigna.

FMLA- short term disability. Open a myrequest with this inquiry and they will reach out to you and walk you through. Pretty easy process.

Thanks guys, do we still get paid while on short term disability?

Recent lateral junior associate in brand new practice where I'm the only associate. I'm probably going to bill 1,500 hours max this year due to being very slow and taking time off for a delayed honeymoon which I disclosed during my interview process. I have been told my work product is good, I don't turn anything down, I participate in non-billable work, I'm responsive and I always let people know I'm available to help. Do I need to be worried about getting fired for low hours?

Do we know if there is a sponsoring partner that oversees this benefit/ program that I could have more of a heart to heart conversation with?

From the benefit policy documentation, my understanding is that EY reimburses employees for surrogacy / adoption related expenses up to $50k lifetime. However, anything related to IVF or medical procedures has to go through insurance (also limited to $50k lifetime benefit). Continued…

So i have been fortunate that i have managed to go through my career without the need for a degree. I was lucky enough to have been hired by one of the worlds top consulting firms, worked with a whole lot of big clients and travelled a lot. It's gotten to the point where I am not even asked about the lack of a degree on my resume. Personally though, it bothers me. I have a whole bunch of certifications in my industry…but just no formal degree. (cont'd)

One of the reasons I want to transition from industry to consulting (tier 1) is that I get frustrated when I have to collaborate with mediocre people. My assumption is that Tier 1 consulting firms hire really sharp people and if I can get in, I’ll be collaborating with folks on top of their game (not expecting much from clients). I’m aware there are personal aspects I need to work on like my mindset, patience etc etc, but I just get so frustrated with blatant stupidity.
