Apart from talent discussions, it also helps you know more people and get some visibility from the sponsors, who typically are the senior management in the company.

But other MNCs one are really counted as your own personal interest pursue. ACN one is like a compulsory that may help your promotion.

You don’t see much of consulting projects because they usually don’t put it up for application, such projects pull in people from their networks. Tech projects to be specific only H&PS projects have more budget but that doesn’t translate into better promotion for its people. I have been in H&PS projects before and many analysts under TAP who hit the one year mark by mid May aren’t put up for promotion despite the one + two. Many had to past the one year mark to only get a chance in end dec. Take for example this end year promotion, all of the one year mark analysts in the change pod are promoted and those snr analyst either hit their 2 year mark or even less than 2 year mark were promoted to consultant. I’m not from the change pod but I know this as my counselee is in the pod. Yes, tech people may not be happy with this, but this is just what reality is. Those consulting people in the change pod are a guaranteed transition into S&C T&O which is the same as our past consulting program for consulting hires. In fact, if you’re looking at L9 onwards, consulting hires have a faster progression as compared to its tech counterparts. There are an abundance of tech people, Accenture mass hires them (just look at the ratio of consulting hires and business&integration offers in TAP monthly), how do you fight for your promotion when there’s so many others to be promoted? To sum it up, those who got into consulting either wants to do consulting have the skills and experiences, or they want the prestige and move out afterwards, or they just want a faster progression. Even those who end up going into the tech dte aren’t doing real tech work, that’s why they jump out to other tech firms which provide better opportunities because as much as how Accenture has a brand to it, many of the “tech” projects are implementation…

Yup understand that network is key to be placed on consulting projects. The point is, even if your networking is on point, not all consulting analysts get to be placed there because projects like that are not common in the first place.

Hmm you're saying that the progression for consulting is faster beyond L9 because of the smaller pool of talents? LOL.

It takes longer to prepare for the next level (CL9-7). Idk where you get the idea that it's easier to weed through the competition and get that promotion..

Will have increment in 2023? The base salary low sia for the brand name.. now so many companies paying minimum 4.9k for base.

LMAO first time hearing tech promotions are fast. The reason why the whole TAP even started was to reduce the number of tech analysts who leave after staying stuck as analyst for 2-3 years. Your inference skills are making us doubt if you’re really from S&C huh, no sentence implied weeding through the competition LMAO. Don’t know how you think one can promote fast if your pool of candidates are around 3-5 times larger? Just look at the number of tech people holding their positions for a much longer time. There are of course a number who over excel but are you going to use those to show that tech get to promote faster? Yes if you have the skills and what it takes for promotion you can get promoted faster as compared to under the tech track. If you don’t have what it takes then whichever DTE you’re under you’ll stay stuck. If you’re under consulting right now and unhappy, jolly well change to tech or whichever track you like. Wonder why you still stay stuck here since you’ve shared how much tech is better… FYI it’s easier to switch from consulting to tech than the other way, so if tech is where you prefer to be, end of the year would be an easier time for you to switch. At the end of the day, everyone’s experience or take is different, do what you feel best for yourself.

First time hearing about this company being a brand name, its rep stinks among local U CS grads for many years already.

If acn have retrenchment, where will it cut its people from first? The corporate functions?

Hi guys, I am going to have last round interview(closing session) with 2 senior management staff a few days later, anyone have idea what is this interview like? I am applying for a senior SRE role for a new banking project.

they'll cut at every level. From Analyst all the way to MD.

They did so during covid and branded it as a normal 'renewal'.

Lmao there are two groups of people in this thread, either you are in the company now or you are applying to the company. So if you’re in the company already and it’s not a brand name, wonder why you even enter? You’re not good enough for other better companies then which also shows your incompetency. But if you are only an applicant now, funny how you’re applying for a company you feel isn’t good. No other choices or offers? Many times people like this op falls into another category where you got rejected and hence salty af. Better off somewhere bro

Once you are in a shitty project, likely dead. Its fire fighting all over again, really feel like throwing liao.
