End of Aug, early Sept when they realize they were significantly over budget or cannot find the budget for tech investments they want they will go after especially Internal Sr Managers in the name of "Recovery," and push them out the door, especially if they are in their 40's ad 50's with high ratings because if you are a top performer, you are also most likely at the top of the pay grid and deemed really expensive despite working like a dog. They will also continue testing their resources to make sure they are willing to work like dogs and whenever they suspect they are not, then those people are also extremely susceptible of getting pushed out. Every one should have a plan B, Save up their FU money (Stupid not too), and develop a vision for where you would go if this were to happen. Accenture is all about cost to serve per second over anything else that crushes the ability to develop and keep inspirational, talented people. They are left with those who are willing to conform to their robotic, vanilla, slave like environment. Once you check in to "The Hotel Accenture, you can never leave" unless they push you out or you gain the courage to go do something with your life - anything - that is more interesting than your prison cell block of Accenture.
