Just received an offer in Accenture for L5 (AD) in NYC for 275k, 50k Sign on, plus 72k RSUs. Is this a solid offer?

You want to make sure that there is a long term project that you are expected to staff. Too many people at Accenture are "on the bench" waiting to be staffed. Your job is at risk if you are on the bench 8+ weeks. The bottom line is that Accenture is a glorified staffing agency, pay is on the lower end of good but be sure you know what you are getting yourself into.
Like57I can confirm. Most folks are on the bench.
Like16I would push for $300 k and a higher sign on bonus. The bench depends on your practice. We have no people on the bench.
Like14Nah 300+ more sign on
Like5That is barely more than what I got for SM in a MCOL location.
Like5What are the L5 base salary ranges from what you know?
Like4I’ll push for 300+ and a higher signing bonus.
Like3I’m making $125k here in Jersey. Jesus with that salary? Put it in the bank & save it all. If you’re on the bench & lose your job, you’ll have all that cash to weather ANY recession
Like17Working at Accenture is hell, one of the worst organizations in the history of corporate America
Like32Look up Accenture Salary Survey, but this sounds low for L5 in Tech. Is that 72k RSUs per year? 50k sign-on bonus is low too for L5.
Like8Dang, I didn't know Accenture paid anywhere close to that 😂

Like372k sounds like a high RSU. Did you also hear about any performance bonus targets? I’d expect another 10%+ from that
Like2Well damn I guess I’m doing the wrong job
Like4Counter w/ $315K
Like2And this is why I’m desperately working my ass off to branch into architecture. When this is considered a mediocre salary, I know it’ll be worth the ass busting now.
Like3They’re continuing laying off people still due to a lack of work. It’s very high risk working for them.
Like6Honey trap, keep looking for next if you join.

Former Accenture employee L8/L9 — I was let go just before the layoffs started, so my departure made a lot more sense after the fact. ‘Accenture Song’ branch in Visual Design. I can’t speak towards the L5 level, but I was $100k with 10% sign on bonus, this was almost 2 years ago. I would push to $300k like some have mentioned. It’s a large adjustment with no real direction from any single source. They could ultimately switch or pivot, performance is calculated by algorithm and data points.
Like3Do you realize they could probably figure out your identity pretty easily if they saw this post?
