Three interviews in a row, and they all said, "We're like a family." Is this the new red flag for "we expect you to work 24/7"? It feels like such a canned response. Would love to know if anyone actually sees this as a positive.

I agree with the other comment. It could go either way. I work at a company that initially said that and I thought so in the beginning but being here for a long time has made me realize that it’s just a cover and at the end of the day, it is just a company and a job. Take those words with a grain of salt.

It’s a grey area to me. I have worked at decent companies, which have said that, and of course vice versa. Just means nothing to me until I get in and see how things actually operate.

I agree with the others. Whenever I say that to a person I'm interviewing, I make sure I'm clear about what I mean - We all like each other, enjoy spending time together, help each other out, etc.

Hi Everyone !!!

This June I completed my 9 months at Career Level 12 and Sub Level 3 I.e, CL 12.3 at
Accenture Operations. My Annual Talent Discussion and One-on-One with People Lead is complete as of last week.

I have 3 questions now :
1. When can I expect to move to 12.2 ?
2. What is the general hike I can expect ? And when it is reflected ?
3. When will be the variable pay will be paid out ?

Can anyone here help me with this performance cycle part ? I am really confused.
