All multi year implementation projects go south at some point. If it was easy, they wouldn't hire consultants

Why would the team get fired? Presumably the client has been paying bills all along.

I’ll let you know in a couple months lol

Hi lady fish,

I’ve been with Accenture for 10 years and am about to take maternal leave. I got an interesting conversation with HR yesterday about leaving Accenture after maternal leave, and the kicker is to join the client. I got a couple of questions for you guys:

One...did anyone leave Accenture right after maternal leave? If so, what happened? Did they have to pay back anything?

Cont.
