This is real recognition for employees. Much better than a Thank You email.
Information Technology (IT) consulting firm Accenture has announced a one-time bonus, which will be equal to one week’s base salary for all employees, globally, below the level of the managing director.
Accenture’s announcement came along with its second quarter results where its revenue stood at $12.1 billion, an increase of 8% in US dollars. The company’s new bookings were at $16 billion, a 13 percent increase from the same period, last year. Accenture now expects its full year revenue to grow between 6.5 percent and 8.5 percent in local currency, a jump from the company’s previous guidance of 4 percent to 6 percent.
“This bonus recognises the exceptional contributions and dedication of all Accenture people to its clients during this challenging year,” said the company in a statement today.
