Think quite a few will be joining me. The bench is massive. I was only put on two projects the entire time I was there. Spent more time on bench then on projects. It's a shame.

Things like this tell you why there is so much attrition
Accenture MDs should listen to employees instead of bullying them into submission. Happy employees are more productive and loyal than miserable ones. Treating employees like disposable objects only makes them feel unappreciated and they start looking elsewhere for employment. Which is why you have such high turnover.
There is no quality people in Accenture now. They will hote for pune id you do not get projects hr people will force to join another location. There is no quality in the items of managing bench or cross training or any issue . Please do not join this Accenture company id really brother about your career. There is no promotions in company since last three to four years...Nearly people are promoted in single dicision units.
Accenture started laying off in india again.giving least rating without any disscussion.why govt shoild not take step against this unethical company.it is happening in India.beware before joining these kind.
European here...hopefully more people are from this region. Got laid off last month, with 3 months severance pay. Thats it. This company is rotten to the core.
Anyone else from europe experience this?
Yea I got the "overhired" term also. And two weeks notice. I agree about the Experienced Hires. We didn't even a chance to form a network. It also doesn't help when the CEO sends out his statement about how great 2nd quarter earnings were and how excited he is for the future. Kind of stings.
my husband got the notice today that he's being laid off. 2 weeks notice. they told him "we over highered last year". what about my family? we have a child and i make pennies a year at a nonprofit. this is terrible. i feel so despondent.
Sorry to hear. Can you at least let us know what DTE you were in?
If I reveal my level, group, geography, and how long I've been there I will no longer be anonymous...but I was a senior manager. No one in my group got severance - it's up to the boss's discretion. I am going to contact HR on Monday to see if I get my unused PTO paid out and whether I get COBRA insurance continuation (I assume I will). I got notified a week ago that I had a week to get on a chargeable account. I know some people who didn't even get that heads up.
What level, group (i.e. Strategy, MC, SI) and geography?
I got two weeks severance. That is standard based on ranking. So anyone below manager. I believe the biggest hit was Financial service consultants.
Why no severance? That seems wrong? How long were you there?
I am with you - I got laid off today. I have been on the bench for 3 weeks - they are massively overstaffed. No severance, just two weeks notice.
