Money
I went part-time and got ACN to pay. Best decision I ever made.
Kpmg doesn't 👎
Why would you get an MBA just to go back to doing the same thing... You might get paid a little more but you can do that by going to another firm...
As in you wanted to keep making money/getting a paycheck? Interesting. money would be the very incentive for me to leave and come back at double the comp...
Another year at work gives you another year's worth of experience to write about in your applications. And really, do you actually know what you want to do with your life after only 2 years of work?
Accenture definitely pays if you're in strategy but it's a reimbursement. Meaning you're not committed until you graduate and go back to Accenture. Then they will give you like a $120,000 for your first paycheck.
The Houston office had an orientation about this last year. People who are in the top 30% of ratings for consultants and up get tuition reimbursement as well as the option to work ACN part time or go to school full time. That being said, I don't know how this works with the new rating system.
Yea paying for school and supporting yourself while not getting paid doesn't appeal to me
^deloitte also has a tuition reimbursement program.
I heard Accenture will only pay if you're part of digital, is that true?
No... Would be surprised if they paid for you in digital. More likely will pay if you are strategy.
Accenture person that was the last to comment what office are you based out of?
^oh and ACN will only pay for certain B-schools. Not all MBAs are created equal.
Nice, I'm in Houston as well not in strategy but passed this information along to an analyst friend of mine and it completely made his day. Thank you for passing this along. This app is pretty useful after all.
Right now the program is for ACN strategy only... Trying to get MC to sponsor as well.
