First night of new hire training I blacked out, got kicked out of the club for trying to do gymnastics on the dance floor, puked all over the uber, woke up in my clothes from the night before with my male friend in the other hotel bed with absolutely no memory of what happened. To my horror I slowly pieced it together from what different people said to me throughout the day. That was almost 6 years ago and now I NEVER have more than 1 drink at a work event 🤦🏻‍♀️

Let’s just say there was this night in Shanghai, 4 of us in Pudong and quite a lot of things that can probably get yoh executed in the PRC. No one got pregnant and we are all still close

Come on people. I’m sure we’ve all seen some fun zoom moments atleast!

The other day my client MDs adorable poodle jumped on her lap while she was yelling at the team. It was hilarious watching the change in demeanor and she calmed down right after. Need more animals in the workplace tbh

I'll tell you what it is: referencing!

You have to do so much of it, and it's so annoying. You have to cite your sources, but there are so many different formats for citations! And then sometimes you don't even know how to cite something, and how are you supposed to know that unless you ask someone who knows? And even then, they might not be sure whether it should be an in-text citation or a footnote…

If you notice that a junior associate on your team has over-billed, how would you handle it? I don’t want to get them in trouble, but noticed that they billed extremely high numbers even though I was doing all they work on the deal and they completely disappeared other than for client conference calls. Certain things that they billed for on the final invoice, I alone handled and never asked them to do. Appreciate any advice. I’m a mid-level in case it helps for context.

Hello,

Currently, in accenture. I have had very bad billable hours and not much achievement this fiscal year. I am worried of getting fired, so i applied for another job. Got offered may be 5% above my current pay with 5k bonus, but in lower level at Deloitte. I think working lower level will give me more opportunities to learn as i think i have lot to learn. I made decision based on my gut and accepted the offer. I have not talked to anyone on accenture side yet. What you think?
