Accenture

Salary is paid even when you’re “on the bench,” without an active project.

1. No salary review even after delivering success on a project or after a full year of work.
2. Company policy states that salary can only be reviewed after 1.5 years of employment.
3. Stagnant career growth, with long periods of waiting “on the bench.”
4. Free courses provided by the company offer no real value beyond basic knowledge you can find in YouTube shorts.
5. Weak benefits package.
6. Projects inside the company are numerous, but working here doesn’t guarantee you’ll automatically join your preferred project – you will be interviewed just like any external candidate.

Feels like a company for retirees who have burned out in their profession and no longer want to do anything.

From the outside, it looks impressive: with all the right talk about psychology and values! But in reality, the company is rotten on the technical side. We are not working in a "psychiatry corporation"! Stop it!

The so-called “leaders” who were meant to support employees undermined me instead. They had access to salary information and discovered mine was higher than theirs, which led to envy and a lack of support for my promotion.
