Currently working in accenture.
The people here are friendly.
People tend to work with passion here.
They work late most of the time is because they came in late.
imagine you come in office at 10am.
8hours of working + 1 hour of lunch break=9 hours.
10am + 9hours = 7pm (standard hours)
Another extra work load + 3 hours= 10pm.
So, it depends.

People here have really good relationship with each other.
As they tend to work late together, they have dinner together.
That's how they build up good relationship.
Some even found their spouse in ACN.
Good or bad?
Depends on how you think.

You cant deny the fact that ACN have heavy workload.
But for fresh graduates, you work more= you learn more.
Good place to start. ^.^

You can choose because they asked me which department I wanted but I say I don't know you choose for me which suits me best. Also during the interview you can ask them all these questions. But if let's say consultant pay way more than the tech. team you still want to join the tech. team..?

Do you know which project are you in?

Don't know which project yet cos I'm only graduating this month. Probably at Menara TM since the interview was held there? Any idea how's the working hours there like? Environment wise that day I saw pretty much standard office only. Btw which project are you in?
*
I see... I'm in TM project. The working environment depends on which TM project you are in. if you are place in Menara TM, then the office is not bad (Personal Opinion). At least with thick carpet, freezing air con, comfortable chairs at modern type of tables. When are you coming in?

According to my friend, it is about RM3.5k.

Just to let you know. only first class honour people got to get into consulting workforce. only consulting workforce earned 3.5k for fresh graduates.

the rest of the people are mainly in solution workforce that only earned 2.5k for fresh graduates.

Not necessary right? Some of the people here get into Accenture Consulting with Second Class Upper also right?

I dont think so. UNLESS you have EXTRAORDINARY curriculum activities to support you. or else first class is the first priority in consulting workforce. smile.gif

Accenture fresh graduate starting salary is RM3600 (confirmed by my housemate and my friend, oversea students). I can assure that they only recruit students of second class upper. They don't have any outstanding extra curricular activities or w.e. But yes, from what I heard from others, the workers in accenture do work like dogs.

Extra curricular activities w/e won't give that much upperhand if you can't talk during interview. In fact, result is not a big deal too. My friend who gets a 2nd class lower is offered to work under investment trainee Khazanah (RM4600).

Me myself (2nd class upper) gets 4 job offers, Citibank GE RM3.5k, Samsung RM3k+, OCBC bank RM3.2k, Celcom YTP RM3.5k. I didn't get any respond from Khazanah yet, so I assume that I failed lol..

Just to answer some questions in this thread, Accenture offers RM3.6k in Malaysia and $4k in Singapore for the fresh grad consultant. xD

Did you apply for ACN? What is your field of study? Engineer?

I didn't apply for accenture. My background is mechanical engineering and about to graduate end of this year. My friends who got them are studying Chemical Engineering and Photovoltaic Engineering, in Melbourne University and University of New South Wales respectively.

As usual, they always hire oversea students.
