Interviewing for a commercial role at Accenture, working in federal spaces right now and I cannot deal with anymore Big4 fed work. Any insights on Accenture? Do managers have revenue/sales targets? Do you have to have 10 different "firm initiatives" or other non-chargeable work to look good for promotion?

Yes on insights, no on sales targets (only MDs and sales--oriented Senior Managers have explicit targets), yes there are extracurriculars which we call +1s - they are the things that build culture and grow the firm and i think you'll find them everywhere. If you're interested in 100% client delivery role, you may want to look at contacting through an agency.

Sure thing! I guess I would react by saying "it depends" - everybody needs to find how to apply their skills and talents to help the firm and there's no single path to success. Some people are naturally good at sales while others want to lead thought leadership and others yet are really good at enforcing and growing the culture. Its all needed and valued, so we want people who can all contribute in different ways.
