The people in accenture is good

Dislikes

The working culture is toxic. There is no work life balance. When people started moving out due to no promotions and appraisal since a year, Accenture started to move them to PIP. There is lot of internal politics.

Abundant trainings, they focus on providing courses, if you are doing just fine at your job you will not have to worry about job security, also if you are a cunning person, you will get onsite.

Dislikes

Politics, no growth, no work life balance, no hikes, salary sucks, nobody knows anything.

You can maintain work life balance here. If you want to learn new skills, you will get lot of opportunities by trainings and certifications free of cost.

Dislikes

No salary hike for employees for last one year. Variable amount is very high and you will get paid hardly 10% of it. There is not much extra salary benefit.

Accenture is great place to work as it provides work life balance. U get good benefits and bonus as well. Projects are also good in Accenture.

Dislikes

Accenture do not provide good projects for the associates/freshers. They put u in the very old technology related project which hampers the growth of the individual and u lack behind in the technology. Also it's upto ur luck also which projects u get!!

I like working here and work culture also nice. Professional growth also great. But all these growth, work life balance varies based on project to project too. As some of my friends also work in Accenture but on different projects have very toxic culture and some have more better than mine. Promotion and hikes also very low from last 2 years. And only those are getting promotion and hikes where project budget are high....Read More

Dislikes

Think that i don't like here is Accenture always try to make gender equality so because of that female gets more promotion as compared to males.

Nothing at all. Wait only the washrooms!

Dislikes

Tons of things to say. First of all, no good trainings given to the new employees. All the team leaders, bosses and managers are in real hurry from day one. There is no proper introduction given about the company and also about the works/tasks we are supposed to do. The place we work is dirty, noisy and ergonomically poorly designed. Other senior employees laugh, talk, murmur while working so it gets very difficult for the new comers to work in a focused manner in a quiet environment. Hardly any breaks for food in a 8-10 hrs shift. Lastly Accenture hired me in a rotational job shift but after clearing all my interviews when I was hired I was out to work only in night shift. I also questioned them that we had an agreement that I would be working in Accenture in a rotational shift position then why are you guys assigning me only night shift!? Well they were speechless and had their backs against the wall and didn’t have any answers. Such things happen in Accenture India. I would highly recommend people to first see the workplace, the work and the timings you all are getting hired for and then if everything is fine then only join. Don’t also fall in the trap of high salary and perks promised by them. Be cautious and careful before getting hired. Thanks to the audience who reads such feedbacks from ambitionbix.com...Read More

I am not seeing any good thing regarding learning point of view, work point of view. Yeah good thing you will get so many event mail like secret santa, fun friday but you can't participate if you don't have good relation with manager. You will be enjoying Accenture if you have good relation with your manager. They are not entertain other state people, means if you are from other state people except south india then they will be trouble, no1 support you, no1 will bother what you are doing atlast they will not give you anything and they will give you the different reason. But if you are from Soth Indian then without work you can get good hike....Read More

Everything is dislike. If you are not from south indian then you will be trouble. I am requesting to Accenture if you don't like other state people then don't hire other state people and don't spoil other sate resources career. You are giving money that means you can't do anything with your employee.

1. **Work-Life Balance**: Accenture is known for its demanding work culture, especially in client-facing roles, where long hours and travel may be required. This can affect work-life balance, particularly for employees with family or personal commitments. 2. **Pressure and Stress**: The fast-paced environment, tight deadlines, and high expectations can sometimes lead to stress and burnout. This is particularly true in certain projects or roles that require constant client interaction and project deliverables. 3. **Limited Career Progression for Some**: Some employees feel that career progression may not always be clear or transparent. While Accenture offers many opportunities for growth, the path to promotion can sometimes be slow or competitive, especially in more senior positions. 4. **Hierarchical Structure**: Accenture, like many large organizations, has a hierarchical structure that some employees find limiting. They may feel that decisions are made at higher levels without enough input from those at lower levels. 5. **Job Rotation**: While Accenture provides opportunities to work on various projects and gain diverse experiences, some employees may find the frequent changes in job roles and assignments to be disruptive or unsatisfying, as it can make it difficult to build expertise in one specific area. 6. **Focus on Billable Hours**: For employees in client-facing roles, there can be a strong emphasis on billable hours, which might create pressure to meet targets. This focus may detract from other valuable work, such as training, skill development, or personal growth. 7. **Corporate Culture and Bureaucracy**: Some employees may find Accenture’s corporate culture and internal processes to be bureaucratic or rigid. This can sometimes hinder innovation or make day-to-day work less flexible than at smaller, more agile companies. 8. **Compensation vs. Workload**: There are occasional complaints about the mismatch between the amount of work expected from employees and the compensation they receive, particularly at junior levels. Some feel that the workload doesn’t always reflect the compensation package. 9. **Frequent Travel**: Many roles at Accenture, especially in consulting, involve frequent travel. While some employees appreciate this as an opportunity to see new places, others find the travel demanding and tiring, particularly when it impacts their personal life. 10. **Standardization**: Some employees feel that the company’s standardized processes and approach can limit creativity or individual initiative, especially when working on client projects that follow a strict methodology. 11. **No Salary Increment for Several Years**: Some employees have reported not receiving a salary increase for an extended period (e.g., 3 years or more). This can lead to dissatisfaction, especially when job performance and company growth do not seem to be reflected in compensation adjustments. 12. **Extended Working Hours**: Although the standard working hours are supposed to be 9 hours, some employees report being required to work 9.5 hours, leading to frustration and a sense that the company is demanding more time without appropriate compensation or recognition for the additional hours. NEVER WORK WITH THIS COMPANY. WORST COMPANY EVER SEEN....Read More
