Deals Strategy would start you earlier if we could - we’re sold out!

Our deal strategy team is boom or bust. Either everyone is scrambling or completely dead. Their reputation is slowly improving in the market so I expect good job pipeline. The only challenge is they have lost a lot of good talent lately at the leadership levels.

Where did they leave?

I'm considering a move to the PEVC Deals Strategy team at a mid to senior level role. What are the work hours, work/life balance, return to office requirements, etc., and overall environment like there? Hard work, good projects, good teams, overall worth it? Appreciate the feedback.

I’m in PEVC. We’ve had a huge hiring surge recently for experienced hires so you’d come in with a relatively large group. I know at least 15 who joined within the last 6 months or are set to join soon. As PwC 2 noted, culture does vary team to team based on your industry. Basically everything varies based on your industry, level, and where you live. If you DM me more specifics I’ll give you a more precise answer.

Hello,

Currently, in accenture. I have had very bad billable hours and not much achievement this fiscal year. I am worried of getting fired, so i applied for another job. Got offered may be 5% above my current pay with 5k bonus, but in lower level at Deloitte. I think working lower level will give me more opportunities to learn as i think i have lot to learn. I made decision based on my gut and accepted the offer. I have not talked to anyone on accenture side yet. What you think?
