It provides the flexibility in working from home, and some project only requires 5 days a month in office with team dinner

Dislikes

Projects are very less , we have to be in Bench for long time , noone will approach us to put in a project if we are hardlock to any training incubation projects , those incubation project are not billable , hence it will affect our variable pay and monthly performance.

Accenture is a great place to work and learn more and in gaining much experience at work if we get proper guidance from our superiors.And the perks and benefits we get here are incredible.

As i was a fresher i will be having responsibilities like attending Kt sessions from my superior any new project i get and i should get some guidance and help from them but in my case they use give such big tasks without any Kt and guidance and deepraj as my manager refused to allow my lead to get some guidance and he allowed and asked me for the updates and he used to assign me larger tasks equal to my superiors and he used to scold me in front my whole project team members and he used to blame me for everything he such a rude and psychotic person i hav ever work and he made me be in pip forcefully even they didnot gave any kts and in the pip period as well they said me to work for their project.please Mr sushantha as you are the superor to him please take care of him.how can they keep me in pip while they didnot liked me and he used to show language barriers and location feeling as he was north indian he used to support every north indian over south indian....Read More

local politics in project, team members. even if you are senior and go into new project you will be considered as fresher. in name of women equality they are promoting women only even if they do deserve that promotion and when they are giving 0% hike to all in firm so neglecting male employee's in serious manner. there is no contactwith higher project management no culture here that senior management will connect to team member, you will only contact to your team lead only. so pray that your TL is good in nature and friendly....Read More

How it is obsessed with diversity and women

Dislikes

Been at the company for 7 years Achieved all sorts of milestones in terms of work Leading a team of 6 being just a senior dev Increased business value of the project Also achieved expert proficiency and certifications But Accenture believes in financial well being and diversity, thus dividing everything amongst everyone and within that favouring women employees Top Performers have no role here

Likes

Established structure with nominal benefits and vast Alumni base.

Dislikes

Everything depends on Project and Management. Accenture policies are not being implemented by Leadership and Management, hence there is no work-life balance and benefits even like getting compensated for weekend support or 16hr of overtime. Management Politics are commonly seen.

Likes

Work from home option is there in few projects which is great.

Dislikes

Promotion and hikes are based on buttering skills, favoritism and not on the hard work. Hardworking employees often end up with more tasks, while others work for few hours a day. Some projects require long hours like 12+ hours with very short break of 10 mins for lunch. There's noticeable leadership politics, team leaders and managers struggle to effectively manage teams. Even sick leave can be denied for critical resources. Learning curve also declines steadily on internal projects....Read More

Some leads and people are supportive, work culture is good until you are performing well and not going to office daily.

Dislikes

If you are going to office daily get ready for the corporate politics, toxic managers. They hire alot for operations role but don't provide any night shift allowances, salary is very less, almost no growth, no extra benifits. You will feel demotivated and feel stuck if you are loyal employee to a company.

Likes

Honestly, nothing here is good. What ever little we like here is basically netting off against the bads we have here

Dislikes

Work, team, company policies ( like seriously? We. Can’t even book our own cabs, we have to get it done by a spoc who most often forgets to book) micro monitoring is done best by seniors and managers. The worst place to work in. I feel like quitting work and start working for dominos . At least we ll have peace of mind.

Cant think of anything

Dislikes

Alot of things, Work is pathetic, people are below average, with little knowledge they seem to know alot. Specially mid management. High focus on gender diversity has led to inclusion of under deserving workforce which is highly non meritorious. Micro management is a key issue. No promotions and salary is under indexed to the competition

I recently interviewed for the Salesforce Application Developer role at Accenture, and I was thoroughly impressed with the company's commitment to innovation, employee growth, and a collaborative work culture. Accenture offers a fantastic platform for Salesforce developers to grow, with opportunities to work on impactful projects and advance technical skills. The benefits, such as maternity plans, are a testament to the company's holistic approach to supporting its employees. During my interview, I faced some communication challenges, particularly when asked about Lightning Components and Push API integration. Regarding the Push API, my response didn’t fully address the nuances of ensuring that the API loop stops recursion. After conducting further research, I now understand that implementing a loop mechanism within the API is key to preventing recursion, ensuring that calls don’t repeat unnecessarily and overload the system. I am excited to apply this enhanced understanding and approach in the future and remain keen on reapplying for a position at Accenture to further refine my technical expertise....Read More

Dislikes

One area of improvement I believe Accenture could focus on is ensuring that interviewers consider the relevance of the questions they ask. In my case, I felt that the interview did not fully engage with the depth of my responses, especially concerning critical technical topics like Lightning Components and Push API integration. While my profile and skills were in line with the role, certain out-of-context questions seemed to derail the interview process. However, since the interview, I’ve further refined my understanding of these areas, and I am confident in my ability to address such topics effectively. Additionally, as discussed with the HR recruiter, I am prepared to answer all relevant questions comprehensively in future interviews. Overall, I would rate Accenture 4 out of 5 for its focus on fostering innovation and supporting professional growth...Read More

The only thing that is good here for now is that WFO is not mandatory.

Dislikes

I switched to Accenture thinking that it'll have better work culture and the disappointment I had! I don't know how so many sub standard people are working here and how they got hired. I have had people with 14 years of experience ask me how to change the header color of a table on an email and ask me to format their emails. This is just an example. There are tens of such incidents with different people. My DU has been good, because the team was actually another company before which was acquired by Accenture. While I was working for my DU, from people perspective within team everything was good. Once I started working as a loaned resource, all the hell broke loose, the real picture of Accenture become evident. So many incompetent people!! So less proactive people and in this muck even the people who are driven lose their track and motivation because the higher management don't care much about the ground level....Read More

Dislikes

Didn't give hike in 2023 and delayed the 2024 promotions One need to get certification of a particular skillset to work on the project for that skill. They will not teach you the skill on the job.
