Accenture

• Some nice fellow wage slaves.

• No personal support, this includes mental health support or outlets for career advice. • Very little professional development support; taking advantage of unknowing grads is half of their money-making strategy. • Underpays by industry standards. • Skirts the law in many ways pertaining to how they will treat you and expectations of your work. • Workplace culture is centered around old-school aggressive competition amongst employees, leading to unhealthy workplaces with people undercutting each other to scramble up the ladder. This includes workplace politics, pandering to the boss for promotion, and working 24/7. • Promoted only if you are willing to work 100-hour weeks. • Do not invest in your growth. • Consulting structure is to charge very high and pay employees as little as possible to do the work. • Talks a big game when it comes to equality. However, the old-school boys' club is alive and well here, and their 50/50 by 2020 is being filled by putting women in traditional gender roles, not actually creating change. • Culture of bullying and MDs playing favorites. Completely unprofessional with both clients and their own staff. • Pay lip service only to being truly human. • Do not have your own opinion here if you...

People are not slaves. If you want the best team and performance from them, invest in growing their talent and treating them like people instead of slaves.

Accenture would do well to actually walk their marketing and recruiting talk, rather than paying lip service to it.
