seen so many times Acc hired junior consultants and sell it as an experienced resource . That is why in the streets said Acc cant deliver. No doubt that they have a few very capable consultants but then again, this is their business model.  to buy low ( ie junior consultant ) and sell high ( charge the client as an experience resource )

u will be amazed how much they are charging the client per man day .. and that is why Acc absolutely hates contractors smile.gif

They ask you a few questions to see how you perform.

basic stuff, but 6 months probation period and increment after every 6 months

yeah, since my excolleague had no choice but to work with them so he was kind of disappointed. if i'm not mistaken, he told me that they dont know abotu the business process but talks like they knew (btw, my excolleague is the pioneer group who start the SAP project for the asia region), some is not possible but they said is possible. that is why he was kind of 'kik sum'.......btw, if client talk maybe la but last time even the main SAP talks about ACN does not know what they are doing. below is an article on it....hehe

Ha ha ha, I have seen many fantastic SAP consultants, presenting their best SAP configurations and technical solutions (user-exit, bolt-on, FI validation, FI substitution, OLAP,,,,etc). But, none of these best SAP consultants look at business integration, supportability and long-term business objectives. Whether these "brilliant" SAP consultants like it or not, Accenture delivers and they deliver global systems to global customers at world class standard. That's why Accenture's share price is > USD 40 per share and global companies Shell, BHP Billiton, etc like Accenture. smile.gif


QUOTE(underpressure @ Mar 20 2010, 05:02 AM)
About what you guys say about accenture unable to delivery. There is a running joke about consultancy, it goes like this:

What does a consultant do?
Basically they take your watch and tell you the time.
*
That's true, many people have their watches but don't even know how to value the "time" they spent.

QUOTE(wodenus @ Mar 20 2010, 05:27 AM)
There's this joke :

A consultant turns up one day at a farm, and then asks the farmer "if I tell you how many sheep you have, can I have one?". The farmer thinks there's no way he can tell that, so he says "okay". The consultant marshals his forces, studies plans and graphs and pictures, and then tells the farmer "you have 4,760 sheep".

The farmer says that's correct, so the consultant leaves. The farmer catches up with him as he's trying to load his prize into the car. He then says "if I tell you what your job is, can I have it back?". The consultant thinks there's no way a simple farmer can tell what his job is, so he says "ok, go ahead." The farmer then says "you're a consultant."

The consultant is surprised and asked "how did you know that?" so the farmer says "you came up here uninvited, told me something I already knew, and charged me for it. Can I have my dog back now?"

laugh.gif Actually, "consultant" is a word with both "con" and "insult", add up is "consult".

Accenture Siebel Springboard Training Program

Hi fellow forumer, judging by the program name, is it consulting field inclined or the other way? Anyone has gone through this program before? I need more details on salary, duration, future opportunities/direction and workload. Thanks.

to be completely honest i think consultants are overpaid. the other day at my office i heard a Oliver Wyman consultant say on the phone "i dont know what a mortgage is". i found that absolutely shocking.

but then again accenture turned me down. so maybe im just sour

i got a colleague who is doing marketing previously and now, she is doing 'level 3' server support. dont ask me how but it is possible but sadly, whole team doesnt like her cos giving more trouble than offering help. so in the end, she is just doing those L1-L2 job, avoid L3 jobs and getting a L3 pay but still say less...phew.....but still get 'above peer' in yearly assessment. just be smart to talk kok and know when to email the whole world when u 'solve' a problem or find others mistakes and when to keep quiet/taichi when got problem.
