Interesting comments everywhere.
“This is getting out of hand. Huge company wanting to put shareholders first which is fine but these reorgs are getting out of control. If you work at Accenture consider a target on ur back”
“Accenture is pushing all work possible offshore”
"’Bro, you're old...get out!’
Seriously, just say it. We all know you're thinking it.”
“This is somewhat comical because Accenture came into my company 4 years ago and replaced 17 of us with offshore resources.”
“They are a cancer. My company almost hired them but we had enough pull to with management to convince them to go with an onshore only company that probably saved our jobs”
“This is what accenture does. Replaces manual tasks with their own monkeys offfshore.”
“These weren’t manual tasks. We were lead and principal engineers across the IT function. They just figured they could wing it with people who had never used a computer before. I’m beyond caring about how much they must have sc--wed up.”
“I have dealt with Accenture at my current company. Through a common client we had. Accenture was not helpful in doing work in a timely fashion for requests we were working through with the client and ultimately this led to the client churning. They they were not happy about how long it was taking to get things set up, when a lot of the time was spent waiting on Accenture. On top of that Accenture was not as helpful with working with our product as the client was expecting.
So honestly, out of the partner vendors our clients use, Accenture was the worst by far.”

Just like McKinsey, ACN goes around making clients cut jobs (reduce personnel), while they stretch project so they can keep banking for as long as possible without tangible outcomes, there’s nothing AI-magnificent about any of this.
Oh well...
