Roles in accenture singapore

Jesus that's awful lmao I hope you guys farm a few YOE and join better tech companies. This company sounds like a easy place to coast and hardstuck yourself forever.

Either u roll off after ur time is up or quit the firm for good.

[QUOTE=Unregistered;217948] Of course you get paid. You just don't have chargeable hours, and that can reflect badly on your performance review. Of course, if your talent specialist and mgmt can't find you roles, then its on them.

Some may say that this is a good thing, that you get paid to basically do training on your own time or to do nothing at all. But in the long run, you can't say you did nothing on your resume. The longer you hang around doing nothing, the more you stay trapped in the company.

Wa so means no project you still get salary and can stay home ah

Does HR know you have no project tho? And once there’s a project available will help add you in or you need ownself source?

That’s because people think that working in this company for more than 3 - 5 years for a small incremental pay to their salary is so worth the hustle. 💪💪💪

It's worth it when you're a trash dev. I know I'm trash so I stay at my company.

7k monthly in 4-5 years? Sure it's lower than current fresh grads but I'm also dumber and lazier than current fresh grads so it works for me.

It depends on whether you're Accenture internal, or a consultant. If you go to ACCN office, then it's formal office wear. For most projects I'm aware of, most are semi-casual since you work at makeshift offices. Of course, ACCN has a ton of clients and it's entirely dependent on how the client wants you to dress.

Point 1 is quite valid but I don't know about the others but my management tried to get me to become a BA at one point ( I was a dev then and someone in the project approached me mentioning I was tasked to do something ), I had the conversation immediately with the management saying it's not aligned to my career and I'm not interested in it. They called it off then.

Point 2, it's the TFS/PL role to find you projects to interview, but it's on you to accept/get it. Even if it's roles you have no interest/done before. So it's only on them if they can't get you projects to interview. But it's unlikely for them to not be able to find a project. Yup, because TFS will throw you any roles if they can't find you roles that is aligned with your skillsets.

Point 4, it's pretty much project dependent but I wholly dgaf even if I have to work at RCT, I'll still wear semi-casual lol. But if the project requires me to wear formal, then llst have to wear. hahaha.

You can't always count on them to not leave you out due to their own fkups.

You can either source it yourself or they will source it. Once you're benched, please communicate with your TFS/PL and work with them to find a project ASAP.

Don't wait for them lol. You don't really want to miss on opportunities.

Rolling off is hardly possible, unless the project doesn't need you anymore. Else, you have to source for a project that wants you and willing to fight for you with your current project. Else, the current project will just auto extend you without your acknowledgement lol.

So you're better off quitting and finding opportunities elsewhere. It's more worth it as well because of pay hike and a new environment...

Wow where were all these useful info like many many pages back lol

Should sticky these info at the top... Didn't know accenture was this bad.
