Are you referring to the risk advisory practice or management consulting side of erp implementation? Also is this for Oracle, SAP for another erp? I’ve been part of risk advisory services and have sensed this to some extent in the past. So curious to get more details before commenting.
I'm in the Oracle implementation group, and so far I've heard that it's actually rare to come by a project that truly does this work. A lot of the projects are in support of the deals/risk group. I've actually been wondering if they couldn't recruit enough for those groups, so just pushing anyone with an accounting background to work on those projects as loan staff.
I've made my concerns clear to my career advisor, and she doesn't seem to care. Doing audit/tech accounting work depresses me so much, and I don't know if I can hold on until the end of this project (December). I've turned down one audit project request and think that asking to be taken off this current one will reflect poorly on me.
But if that's not what you want and were promised, does it matter how it looks to ask to be taken off?
If they can't give you what they recruited you for, I think it's best you move on.
To put it into simple terms. If you enrolled for swimming classes and instead they want to teach you boxing, would you play along?
