Good Work, Bad Pay, Politics

Current Employee
Has worked at Accenture for less than 1 year

3.0
No CEO Opinion
Pros
  1. Good working opportunities in various domains.
  2. Onsite opportunities.
Cons
  1. Management Issues.

  2. Not comparable pay scale with competitors.

  3. Recognition is mostly political.

  4. Poor transfer facilities to other locations.

  5. Misconception of the word "Host Skill": I understand this word in a way, as a technology which is in demand across facilities but less resources, but I hardly felt the same meaning. Though I had 3 skills not found across the facilities in India, I was not given the Hot Skill Bonuses.

  6. Most of the work being maintenance (not a suggestible option for people like me).

Advice to Management
  1. Recognition is the most important thing, which gives a pat on the back. Managers need to understand this and give sufficient encouragement.

  2. Understanding the situation and helping with a transfer will also be appreciated.
