Hi, I am unable to apply for Automation Testing profile in Accenture portal. I once applied for a job 4 months back. If I am trying now, it's showing "we already have this resume in database which we received from you or some other sources in the past". Is there any other way can I apply for Accenture. Kindly guide me.AccentureAccenture India

What about PwC AC Kolkata with Bangalore office. Now I am toast! I have to face Bangalore cost of living at Kolkatas pay.
I think based on city the range they differs . If u think u r getting good hike then join else not . Suppose my friend getting good hike from its existing Deloitte usi and next level too . So for him win win situation

OP, They don’t pay same because they are technically different firms, different leadership in India. Let me give you an example, my last consulting firm had 3 offices in India in Mumbai, Gurgaon and Bangalore but they all were under the same entity and same leadership in India so the pay were somewhat similar in nature across levels.
Also it depends on the area of expertise, Kolkata provides expertise in assurance, audit and accounting services so they pay relatively well in those domains while Bangalore favors more towards technology and consulting so that’s why you see a lot of disparity in salaries if you are a mismatch.
I am a mismatch, I am making 27lpa at Kolkata at M1 as a tech lead level while I can easily make a lot more if I move to Bangalore AC.

They can be under PwC umbrella but both are different legal entities. Secondly AC bangalore is like the back office of PwC US. But AC Kolkata i think is like back office in general handling clients across Australia, US etc.

Do you think the salary at New York and Pittsburg would be equal for the same position at the same firm?
C1 doesn't know anything but wants to comment. There is clear difference in salary in the market
They were supposed to merge ACs across india.. now there will be only 1 AC entity.. now i am scared whether blore AC sallaries will be scaled down to AC kolkata level because HR will rather pay less than more..
No salary or band change will not happen. That's what our director told us. But how they are planning to merge and all no idea on that.
Well, the talent quality and lines of service differ. Kol AC is mainly audit and assurance focussed. Bangalore AC is mainly consulting focussed. Naturally consulting pays more.
And if you compare Kolkata AC Consultants with Bangalore AC consultants, there is huge disparity in talent quality. People in Bangalore are hired from IIMs and other top colleges, plus they do full front end client work now, hence paid more.

Second this totally, having worked with advisory folks from both Kolkata and Bangalore, you can see the stark difference. most of the consulting folks in Bangalore are hired from top B schools and they do offer most premium returns to the firm.
Having said that if someone is great at what he/she does they will move up the ladder within no time.
So asper you a person like me going from Deloitte usi leading one dev team client facing should not go into ac Kolkata ?
Answer is wrong . See people here compares post basis salary that's why they get differ . Suppose u shud compare ac Kolkata manager salary vs senior consultant salary u will find same . Cz in ac kolkata 7+ yr they give manager position and in Deloitte / ac bangalore 9+ they give manager post . So if u compare manager salary u will find diff. Rather u need to compare yoe level salary comparison . Btw the role i got offered from ac kolkata is directly client facing with cybersecurity latest tool . And for their bangalore location . So i think u shud compare the yoe and salary . Then u will get fair idea

Op has asked a correct question Bangalore does pay better than Kolkata, on every level an advisory resource from Bangalore gets paid more than Kolkata, can’t talk about assurance LOS since Bangalore isn’t much involved in audit services.
The benchmark and the salary range of pwc AC Bangalore is higher than pwc AC Kolkata for similar levels.
