Accenture’s Work Environment
To achieve success, support is crucial, and Accenture strives to give the very best. Access to rich information and resources, revolutionary technology and a network of more than 244,000 great people all combine to provide a stimulating, supportive professional environment in which to build your career—no matter where you are physically located.
As an Accenture professional, your working environments will be as diverse as the industries and services we offer our clients. Through project work, internal communities or through our extensive computer-based information resources, you can always find a way to share your skills and experiences and learn from others.
Flexible Work
We know how important it is for our employees to strike a balance between their work and personal lives. Various technological innovations, from laptops, wireless phones and Internet access to e-mail, combined with Accenture’s serious commitment to flexibility in the workplace, allow us to offer our people a flexible approach —giving them options as to how and where they do their work.
Work Arrangements
Flexible working arrangements must be driven by a business need and are determined in each country to take into account local practice, culture and law. Currently, Accenture has flexible work arrangements-such as flex time, part-time, job sharing, telecommuting/home working-in more than 30 countries around the world.
Working Away From Home Location
Work/life balance is also an issue where significant professional travel is involved, which is often the case for many of our Consulting and some of our Technology people. Fly-backs and client-site flexible work arrangements help our professionals balance work and life when they are
working away from their home location.
Video Conferencing
Accenture is striving to reduce the amount of travel required by our employees by rolling out a variety of video—conferencing technologies that help to connect face-to-face with remote teams in real-time. These technologies include Telepresence, a “like being there” video conference solution, and RoundTable, a 360-degree visual conferencing tool.
