Sometimes I wonder how amazing it would be if we could use our different credit cards to book business travel rather than just the corporate Amex. The points must just come pouring in

EY2, I think you misunderstand. No one I've ever talked to here has ever heard of someone getting in trouble for using their personal card - it's a non-issue.

Acn doesn’t “let” you. Let’s be clear about that. When they need a reason to fire you, “expense policy violation” is an easy scapegoat. #shareholderfirst

My firm does this...and I spend maybe 3-4 hrs on expense reports because of it. It’s a trade off

12 years in so far buddy, I feel like I've got enough experience here to have gotten a feel for things like this. But yep, those points sure are nice 😁

Accenture does not allow to use personal cards for airfare booking (except for rare situations when you do not have a chargeable code, for example). Whoever tells you otherwise is violating the policy and bragging about it.

BTW you don’t have to imagine how awesome this would be. You could easily model it.

You think they might roll it out in the future?

I was there. I’ve submitted many time sheets and expense reports. I’m not a zealot, everything went on personal cards. But don’t kid yourself if you think they won’t use you willingly pressing “I accept” on your bi-monthly timesheet’s policy affirmation as an admission of fraud if they want to.

I guess I find what you're saying quite far off from what I've experienced / heard of here, seems quite atypical. That type of thing I hear more from my friends at a few of the Big 4
