They're definitely actioning on the public quotas they've announced. Both female and diversity The corporate America BS definitely exists, but it exists everywhere and I think Accenture does a much better job at promoting equality for all opportunities.

I think white women have it pretty on par with men. Women of color though... not so much, but that’s life
I second this. Let’s just say they got an earful at my exit interview.

I'm a black woman in a side of Accenture where I'm very underrepresented but also heavily invested in. Top of all the pay bands and I've gotten offers elsewhere that don't come close for the same work. I don't know if it's just me or just luck or if they're making good on their word, but I've been very successful and have a lot of political cover when personal stuff comes up. All corporate is bullshit, right? Accenture just happens to have the best I've seen/heard of for a company this successful. It's one thing to be in a company that treats you decently, but it's another thing entirely to be part of a company that at least acknowledges the shortcomings, how decent isn't good enough, and does seem to make some bold progressive statements (with action plans) that comparable companies would never.
I’ve done super well here and feel very supported in my career (POC). I feel far more valued here than at Deloitte. There’s a palpable shifting tide (in a good way) at Accenture when it comes to meaningful D&I
Mentor ship is there - just need to consciously seek it out
Thanks everyone! I’m hearing slightly mixed but overall more positive towards Accenture. I’m having my follow up call with the recruiter this afternoon (finished all the interviews) so wish me luck!
DM me, have worked for both.
