I just found there is one training silently popped up in my learning hub, how does this affect promotion? Do only the overdue ones count as negative impact ? Or do we simply need to clear them before 1 of June ?
That’s it. That’s the post.
Does anyone have experience with negotiating your new promotion salary?
Extra plus if it was from L10 to L9
How did you do it?
Who do you bring that argument to (HR, PeopleLead)?
Hi everyone, I’ll be joining the Technology Analyst Programme at in the next couple of months as a graduate. I’ve seen a lot of mixed opinions on here, especially around the “sink or swim” culture, so I’d really appreciate some practical advice on how to build a successful career early on. Specifically, what should I focus on in my first month, 6 months, and first year to build a strong network, become valuable on projects, set myself up for good opportunities, and prove my value? I’d especially appreciate specific advice rather than general points. For example, not just “build a network”, but how people actually did that successfully at Accenture.
I also don't start for a couple months, is it worth reaching out to people on Linked In asking for some coffee chats before I start?
Thanks!
Hi people I am at the company for 2yrs and half.
I request your thoughts about my current situation. More brain might help.
Coming from communication and international relationship background.
Been recruted after a "professional retraining" as "web designer, java springboot developer". Those are my based technical skillset.
I started level 12 pretty low, close to the ground 😅
I stayed on bench for 6 months. Then got a mission in industry (R&D) on a C++ based stack. I acquired skills over Dassault Systemes technologie, and I am multi certified.
I asked to leave this project a month ago after delivering a specific project of modernisation which has been praised by the client and its comex.
Client already want to get me back on a more ambitious tasks. I should start in a few week.
Besides that I am running 2 internal project, one automation and another as PM for a Computer Vision client propal.
Nonetheless I consider myself underpaid (<30k). Not that I work too much for this but more like I consider myself as a "T profile".
Currently I am considering to wait fro the cycle of May then make decision.
Either I jump to L10 and it's ok no more bad consideration over my situation.
Or I jump to L11. In this case m'y stay at the company will be influenced by the salary increase.
If it's not enough I might leave.
Do you guys see other options ?
Hi I was recently offered the FDE position but wanted to hear any advice if it’s worth accepting this role as someone that would like to be a SWE? I also have to relocate for this role so I’d like to make sure this is worth moving for my career goals.
thank you!

Joined accenture on Feb,2026. I want to know when will I get my first hike and vp payout. I couldn't find it anywhere on my offer letter.
Curious what people’s salaries are for both L10 and L9 for those living in NYC!!

A year ago, I was deeply criticized for two posts I wrote on the structural challenges facing Accenture and the urgent need to address them. The argument was simple.
The market was underestimating the structural threat Al posed to the traditional consulting and systems integration delivery model. A year on, the numbers speak for themselves. Accenture is down roughly 38% year to date, close to 49% on a one-year total shareholder return basis, with nearly half the market cap gone.
The issue is that one of the most successful professional services operating models of the last 30 years is broken.
Accenture built an extraordinary business by industrializing enterprise transformation. Massive delivery programs, huge offshore workforces, over 300,000 developers in India alone, thousands of engineers deployed across long-duration
implementations. At its peak, it was arguably one of the greatest labor-arbitrage businesses ever created.
Generative Al attacks the economic foundation of that model directly. It sottware development becomes increasingly automated, what happens to firms built around monetizing vast pools of human delivery capacity?
The challenge is brutal because Al creates a paradox.
The technology can massively improve delivery efficiency, but improving delivery efficiency compresses revenue in businesses still priced around hours, utilization and headcount. The internal response tells you everything. Accenture has cut roughly 11,000 roles, with headcount down close to 14,000 over the past year and stealth layoffs running for 10 of the last 11 months in consulting. Over $2 billion spent on severance.
Promotion eligibility for senior managers now tied to measured Al tool usage. Julie Sweet has been explicit: people who cannot reskill to Al-native delivery are being exited on a "compressed timeline." Quietly, contractually, painfully, the firm is conceding the point.
Meanwhile, Al-native competitors are emerging without the same constraints. Smaller teams, lower overheads, faster deployment cycles, productized delivery.
Engineers augmented by Al from day one rather than retrofitted into legacy structures. Many of them will never need tens of thousands of developers because the work no longer requires it. The consulting industry spent two decades scaling through labor intensity.
The next decade will reward orchestration, IP, workflow ownership and Al-enabled leverage instead. This does not mean firms like Accenture disappear. They still have extraordinary client relationships, distribution and global reach. But the model has to evolve faster than any incumbent of this size has ever attempted.
I recently cleared the client interview at Accenture India,just have HR pending for salary negotiations.
I’ve 7 YOE and have an offer with 25 LPA fixed.
Will Accenture match the offer for this YOE or what can I expect here ?
Hi folks, I will be joining Accenture S&C GN in their Tech Strategy and Advisory. Wanted to understand how does the projects look like here? How is the work life balance? Is their any onsite opportunity?
Any input is appreciated
almost a year here and im already on my fourth project. i dont know how to cope with this since i constantly have to on the clock and anxious almost all the time. one when i first joined in since almost everytime they will ask me to complete something ASAP then i will be anxious because i will be roll off and i dont know how long will i be on the bench. my current project only booked my for 2months, i have to work my ass off to learn, catch up and deliver then when i finally understand to the project i will be off to another one / bench which both are worrying. i dont know how to stop this like should i go to the hr or pl
Project documents, managers and directors. Many are at risk.

Hola, me gustaría preguntar a los seniors en accenture si saben cual es el proceso de utilidades, recibimos de nombre un ' Anticipo PTU ejercicio fiscal' en enero pero me he topado con información de RH donde mencionan que accenture no paga utilidades sino un bono anualizado garantizado que es el que recibimos en enero ¿es información es cierta?
