I feel for folks affected by layoffs, but accenture is a garbage company. [1]
Some quotes from Hertz' lawsuit against accenture:
> "Accenture also failed to test the software, Hertz claims, and when it did do tests "they were seriously inadequate, to the point of being misleading." It didn't do real-world testing, we're told, and it didn’t do error handling.
> Accenture’s developers also misrepresented the extent of their testing of the code by commenting out portions of the code, so the code appeared to be working."
The sooner off-shore body shops are gone from this earth, the better.

- onlyrealcuzzo 4y agoIt's almost as if 80% your pay going to bloat and 20% going to product-eng isn't a good way to spend your product-eng budget...
- cheq 4y agooff shore services wont go anywhere, even less if rates and inflation keeps raising in USA. Accenture, Globant and other big corpo in the tech industry are hoarders of semi-jr proffessionals. I'm from a third world country working as a contractor for tech companies, and both of the companies named are seen as the initial step of every developer, because they pay the lowest salaries in the market.
