Dislikes

As a fresher you may end up working for the same position and on same salary for long period. I have saw the freshers(who have done graduation from BCS, BCA) who joins Capgemini at CTC 2.5 LPA and after 3 years was on 2.75 LPA. So as a fresher you might stuck in this. You might get selected for technical role but after you may end up doing support task(For fresher's who's first company is Capgemini).

Nothing - Just that it gave me a job and because of that I am able to pay my bills.

Dislikes

The list goes on and on 1) SAPIENCE- A tool that is supposed to calculate your productivity but is actually something because of which people are most unproductive 2) They are not running a company but a school where you need to reach office at a certain time and stay there for 8 hours, even if there’s not much to do 3) They cannot accept the fact that we have a life outside office and we are expected to be available even after office hours 4) Very less hike and 1 promotion may take atleast 4-5 years 5) No interesting or challenging work, you will not learn anything. Just follow the preset rules. No place for innovation and effort. 6) No value for efficiency.

Salary is as per market standard. Office campus is too good.

Dislikes

Appraisal cycle is very bad. There is no fixed month or date on which the appraisal comes. Too much micro management is there. No work life balance. They just want to get the work finished no matter what the quality is.

Overall Accenture is good other than Microsoft aligned technology Avanade group in my personal opinion. Provides some good benefits like 5000 points by which you can select some wallet money for medicine this can be used for health of ourselves and our parents. Lots of projects. Lots of office events but not everytime we can join to work pressure and toxic managers. Leaves policy are good you get sick leaves and casual leaves other than Earned leaves. Sick leave and casual leave we can take Ad-Hoc. However manager dont like when you take long leaves depends on manager to manager.

Dislikes

... or support when you want to visit any office event. They just want you to work. From past 2 years Accenture is not providing any hike and less bonus around 5-15 percent. In year 2024 end they provide hike finally but in range of 3-8% only and bonus around 5-15% only. Minimum promotion 1 out of 10 person got promoted here other 9 were also deserving and eligible for promotion considering their experience and work dedication and output. This is my personal experience I can’t tell about overall culture.

Overall experience is good in this company as learning opportunities are excellent and we can grab certification with free vouchers and work life balance is also good but depends on client too.

Dislikes

Salary and increments are not that good as company brand value.
