Accenture

• Big international projects
• Great start for people new to the industry
• Mostly a good work-life balance

Promotion system and salary increase is a joke at mid-senior levels. They emphasize how it is merit-based, but really, it is fluff and does not seem to matter what you do.

With exceptional project feedback every cycle indicating you are already taking on next-level responsibilities, all of the training roadmaps finished, and having out-of-project activities (contributions) done, you can still easily get passed over for promotion for many cycles, even when you have been at the same level for many years.

Nothing makes one feel valued and loyal to the company as always having A++ reviews, high responsibilities, and then getting paid after 5+ years the same as other big companies pay for junior developers with 1 year of experience.

• One can get a higher salary if you quit and then rejoin, as they are willing to pay more to new joiners than people who have already done great in their company.
• Junior-heavy projects. Most projects seem to always be full of very junior people with few senior developers. This places enormous strain on senior developers to train up new hires/interns and, at the same time, keep project delivery on track.

Rethink why there is such high attrition at senior levels and why the company is junior-heavy.

Start to value and keep the senior developers you have instead of trying to replace them after they have already left.
