It's sad and sort of amusing that most people here seem to be misunderstanding the point of this entirely. Unfortunately, this is likely prophetic of the way people within Accenture will misunderstand this too. Most of the grievances in comments here at this point are not so much about the feedback system as about the pay system. There is no mention in the article of "pay", "compensation", "salary", "reward", or any other word talking about the pay system. There is no indication that this is what's being operated on. What is happening is that they're replacing a yearly feedback process with a continuous feedback process. That's very worthwhile, but it won't solve issues with the pay system, or with politics, or with people "playing the game", etc. It just means that people will have more regular feedback. That's good in and of itself, but it won't suddenly transform the company or turn it upside down. Now, at the same time, reading this CEO's statement, and comparing it with the sort of stuff that was being said when I was working there, this guy seems positively enlightened. I hope this is just one piece in a pattern of many different things he'll be changing at Accenture. If it is, then there could be large scale change in Accenture. As it is, this is just one encouraging bit of change around the feedback process. NOT a change of the pay model. NOT something that will get rid of politics in the pay model. NOT something that will majorly change the culture. JUST something that will encourage everyone to operate in the way that good managers (of which there are many at Accenture) already operated.
