Accenture particularly has had a reputation of taking wet behind the ears consultants straight out of Uni and charging 4 figures for creating pretty presentations for the days of being Andersen Consulting and before.

        And the buggers didn't give me a company car.

        The twats even complained about my expenses.

        Not surprisingly I was soon offered a job at a client. Nearly double the pay and a Beemer for a company car, but the experience already had me planning to go independant when the time was right.

          I've been at two blue-chip companies when big consultancies were sussed and terminated as a waste of money.

          It wasn't my doings either.

              Same old story of getting taken over by a Yank company then everything going rapidly downhill I'm afraid.
