Former ACN drone here: As an analyst, all you have to do is make friends with someone in the group that can pull you onto one of their projects and then start the process of moving you over (if you’re LCR is lower it will help too). If you can show how you can improve the value of IT Strategy projects using analytics they will be making empty promises before you know it!

Anyone joining Ethel’s club?

Received a verbal job offer on Tues. $5k short of what I had said was my desired range but still up from my current salary. We set up a call for Thurs to discuss further. On Wed they sent me all benefits info. Thursday on the call I asked if we could either increase moving stipend or get closer to my desired salary. They said no, and I asked them to send over written offer and I would let them know by Fri. They then email they are no longer offering me the position and repost it the next day:
