Accenture

Relocation services

Opportunities to move abroad and find a new job elsewhere ASAP.

Events are good.

Good stepping stone.

Horrible work culture. When you have a project, you are often overworked and very underpaid.

Competing jobs in product companies offer nearly double the salary, but you are asked to work way more than is normal.

Besides work, you need to do contributions (mini tasks for future pitches to be based on) and finish certifications. This is kinda wild because these are almost always expected to be completed in your own personal free time.

These are necessary for a promotion, but having these certifications and trainings will not guarantee a promotion.

The stability of the job is extremely poor too. During February of this year, a number of people who were on the bench were just let go via a quick Teams call. A lot of whom moved to Latvia for the job.

The disregard for people's lives and well-being was disgusting. I saw two folks who moved to Latvia and worked at Accenture for one and two months respectively being let go because the company couldn't find any projects for them, with no severance pay or anything.

To add insult to injury, they still keep hiring and letting go of people, despite knowing they have no projects to give these people. They have not stopped hiring.

As a result, they have very high attrition rates.

Please heavily reconsider what you are trying to achieve. Nobody at Accenture Latvia actually wants to stay, and the minute they get another offer, they leave. If this keeps happening, it's not the developers or anyone else who is at fault; it's clearly a management issue.
