Is Accenture still doing per diem instead of expenses? If so, how much per day in a place like NYC?

Per diem is more than i usually spend. If expenses exceed per diem then can usually figure out a way to itemize.

NYC per diem is $79 a day. I travel up there frequently.

🥲

Per diems are pretty bad at Accenture. Most people skip breakfast or eat the snacks at the office and then try to order as a group as much as possible to expense as a group meal instead of claiming per diems

I’ve found them to be very good. I get 75 in LA literally making money each week. each meal is 15-20 bucks and you can get a hotel thah serves breakfast. If you’re traveling frequently you get status and breakfast included at many Chains.

Spent about 35-40 or so a day. Sets the profit to be over 100 bucks a week.

Per diem but we almost never hit against it since we expense most of our meals as team events or client dinners.

Wow that's better. When I was there in 2019 it was like $47 a day

It just went up from $76 in August. Really pumped about those extra $12 a week

Is this different for MDs? I just started as one and was told I’m on actuals.

Hello Fishes,

I have 2 offers in hand currently -
1. CGI - 25LPA +1L JB
2. Neev systems - 23LPA (5%VP)

Neev systems is ready to negotiate it with CGI. And both companies have their own benefits.

Neev's hike is good compared to CGI(almost double) & CGI have some additional perks like cab facility, Creche allowance, mobile, internet bills reimbursements and additional 5% shares.

Both might have similar WLB (12-9pm).

My DOJ is tomorrow, unable to decide between them. Pls help me!!
