I got 1 rating in cts, that too in USA. My manager said he gave 3 but during normalization they made it 1. Although I have worked well and got client appreciation, still I received 1. PIP was frozen, I cant update it (it is called HR lock). During project leap, one day HR called me and said I am terminated from that day, that too when I was billable and working on a project.
I was unlucky to have a weak manager who cant fight for the employees. Luck plays a major factor, good work is secondary.

You are not alone and hope you get a better job. i had the same scenario with CTS and left once for all. When a manager is not able to provide proper rating he is not fit to be in a manager role.

People manager is very important role for any organisation. Few companies like CTS promote people to get more billable rates …without evaluating if these M/SM are truly people leader or not.
Sorry to hear that you are victim of this situation.Wish you all the best.

Can someone explain how billable hours work? At a new agency and although I had to fill timesheets at my previous agencies, they were mainly used to ensure we weren’t over servicing a client/for setting the appropriate retainer for contract renewals. I asked ppl at my agency but haven’t gotten a proper explanation. I get the impression that billing to the agency admin code isn’t recommended, and my manager said he bills everything to client codes, but that doesn’t make sense to me .

Hi lady fish,

I’ve been with Accenture for 10 years and am about to take maternal leave. I got an interesting conversation with HR yesterday about leaving Accenture after maternal leave, and the kicker is to join the client. I got a couple of questions for you guys:

One...did anyone leave Accenture right after maternal leave? If so, what happened? Did they have to pay back anything?

Is this legal? My spouses company just decided to change their comp structure for account managers. It was base + comm, now it’s commission only but nothing changed, OT commission is the same, didn’t get more points, just took away the base pay and said work harder basically. So now they have to worker harder to get $50k they were already making. (Not a decision based on employee performance, they’ve been crushing it. I think the company is just trying to save money they overspent else where)

Does anyone have any advice on how to deal with discrimination as an Asian in the workplace? In my company it seems like it’s a white boys club where and they just promote white ppl because they’re white. And then they have a lower bar for promotions for minorities (traditional minorities likes Hispanics and African Americans). Meanwhile they make Asians do all the work. I am not generalizing that this is how it is everywhere but it definitely is that way in my workplace. Any advice?
