You might find a culture you love at ACN or you might hate it. Groups operate very differently without a lot of leadership from the top.

Accenture is huge so you're going to get a lot of different answers

Nothing is better at ACN... stay away

Why?

Currently at Expert Director level and part of BCG Analytics brand.

ACN Strategy & Consulting practice. Whats the share of tech/non-tech projects (ACN has always been more visible on Digital and tech projects). Does ACN have a lot of internally developed proprietary tools/products they generally deploy in projects (BCG is mostly customised).

Thanks so much VP1. You clarified a lot of doubts. Appreciate the help.

Depends on who you’re working for, truly. Just like any company. We’re a culture of cultures sometimes because of size. But core culture is hard working, smart people, who want people to have a good working experience. Understanding and human during tough times. With Julie as CEO, I see more and more kindness and collaboration than ever. Bad apples at every company, but I see them getting phased out constantly. Things are good here.

Which practice?

What MD level is the role for? (I.e.: director (cl2)/senior exec (cl3)/exec (cl4) )
