I am going to be joining Accenture’s Strategy & Consulting division shortly, I need to book a trip later in the year. I was wondering does Accenture have a mandatory shutdown period over Christmas for which we need to keep our Annual Leave? Also does Accenture’s holiday year start on Sep 1st?

Highly encouraged but never mandatory :) Christmas it's expected you take some time but if you need to work it's ok, August / summer you're assumed to take time then too

I don’t think you can get paid out for holiday anymore; I think they changed the policy so that you can only carry over 37.5 hours (I.e 5 days). FY21 was an exception because so many people didn’t get time to take holiday!
