In Reply To: I recently took an analyst poistion paying in the low 50s. I initially thought this was fair, but definitely underestimated the quality of work and abusive work and travel schedule. After reading some posts on here, I also feel like I may have accepted too low of an offer. I had a very technical degree and had a year of work experience before joining, is my compensation acceptable for an analyst in the northeast? I've hoped to stay at least a year, but am considering a much earlier departure date. Any advice? Without the carrot of intending to stay for the long-term, there seems to be little motivation. What is keeping the rest of you from jumping ship?
Message: I'm thinking about joining Accenture after graduation because I recently got the verbal offer, but not the salary yet. Can you tell me more about the abusive work and travel schedule you experienced? I was told that analysts don't travel outside of the city! Also, low 50s sounds great to me! Maybe I'm naive.
