It starts at close to market for first years, but the rate of increase each year does not keep up with market. Bonuses can be pretty good if you’re a high performer, they are not lock step for each class. Most people I know there are billing 1700-2000 hours and don’t really complain about their comp relative to the hours they actually bill.

Pretty sure the saga of the slave driven company has come to an end I’m the only HR person at this company. Friday I had full admin rights, and went to check email Saturday; account locked.

Some recruiter in Accenture lined me up for an interview for a role which was not in my skillset ( by saying that this is just an evaluation exercise and they will map me to the right role) and obviously I got rejected. Now I see that I am not eligible to apply the role which I was targeting for the next 6 months. Any idea how can I get this escalated so that the recruiter ( Accenture employee) should at least be careful in future before fooling a noob like me?
