I have been with Accenture for 4,5 years before I left this summer for a step-up opportunity in the industry. It was a hard decision as I loved my team, but got tired of delayed promotion. I joined a pharma comp. at 20%+ compensation and next career level, i.e mng. Between my offer until I joined, they assigned a new director accountable to my area, who does not want to hand over. (1,5 months now). She is impossible to work with and bullies me at work. Is it realistic to come back to Acn?

It's been 45 days, j would urge you to consider giving it more time.

With that said, boomerangs are common - if you have a good relationship with your former MD, there is no harm in reaching out.

My main concern is that it has been such short time and to not send the wrong message to tje team. They said I can always come back though, and while I could look at other options, if there is anything I learned is that 1) I am a consultant through and through. 2) My compensation and title don’t matter when I am not happy with my job on a daily basis

like

1.5 months is like almost no time at all, but if you want to go back then reach out to your team. It sounds like the relationship was pretty good

like

Yes you could come back. It'll be at the same salary and level as when you left.

like

Reach out to your old team to confirm if there is still a spot for you, and if so, when it may be available or unavailable. For example, maybe companies stopped hiring in order to keep the bench light through the holidays. This way, you have an idea of possible exit timing.

But before agreeing to return, keep trying to make things work with your current boss. I'd give it 4-6 months, then decide. Overall, I would try to get another industry job (whether internal transfer or a new company) first because going back to your old firm will just buy time until you want to leave again.

I knew within a month I wanted to boomerang but I gave it a year.

It’s never too early to reach out to former leadership you worked with assuming you ended on good terms. That being said, don’t expect any sort of promotion or pay raise from what you left if you’re coming back this early.

For sure, that is understood. I am more worried of that putting me more in backline somehow, its super unfortunate. But yes had a great relationship with my cc & md

Curious as to how many deals at once is typical for a first year associate to take on (M&A, mostly private equity clients). Deal size is lower middle market and I’ve worked on deals ranging from $1-$110M. 2 deals at once is plenty for me, but it seems like my peers are able to take on more than that at once and still do fine. Maybe I’m just a slow learner/out of my league at the big law firm I’m at.

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?
