I've been surfing LinkedIn and noticed a number of ACN folks made Senior Analyst in 9months (tech analyst). How do I do that? Also what's the salary increase?

The salary increase is variable based on your OG, CSG, and OU. The way to do it is to look on the intranet at all the things that are expected of the level above you, and then do those things.

Thank you for your reply. What are OG, CSG, and OU? P.s. I haven't started yet, so the acronyms are new to me.

They'll go over all of this. OP, I promise you the best way to do well is to be baller at your role. Right now, focus on keeping your head down and mastering the shit out of what you do. The less oversight and supervision you need, the more likely you are to get a good review. If you're not even a day 1 employee, don't worry about the next step just yet. Besides, you just missed the review window anyway, so you'll have to wait until next year.

Gotcha. Thanks ACN1. I really appreciate it!

Senior analyst was a BS position they created to placate analysts whose promotion cycle was pushed back 6 months last year. In reality I believe it serves as a deceptive means of slowing the rise of new hires to consultant (and more $$$).

Really? Don't they get a pay raise?

They do. But it's minimal. The track from analyst to consultant used to be about 1.5-2 years and no promotion after year 3 was a path o the chopping block. 4th year analysts/senior analysts are very commonplace now
