Accenture

I've heard many bad things about Accenture. I can say, at least in my case and the current project that I work on, that the experience has been great so far.

• Salary isn't the best when starting, but it's okay as long as you're working from home. It compensates by not having to spend money on transportation and other things.
• Management so far has been amazing.
• I've never been told no to my requests, not that I've asked much, but I'm also hardworking, so I can't complain. When they say no, I'll start working less, just to compensate :).
• Plenty of promotion opportunities, usually fair from my experience. If you work well, not much in terms of bad things, but well and you're active to make yourself known, a promotion is pretty much possible.
• Private health insurance is included.

The roster, I can't stand it. It's unpredictable in different situations. Make the roster 6/3 or 4/2 for God's sake if you need coverage 7 days a week, and that way it will be quite fair for everyone.

20 days of paid leave is unfair; it should be at least 24/25.

A few more little perks would be more than welcome.

In projects where 7-day-a-week coverage is needed, considering a 6/3 or 4/2 roster would not hurt. People hate it when they are not able to plan anything for the weekend 3-4 months in advance. Most of the time, they are either forced to beg others for a day back or use one of the holidays, which is unfair.
