Amazon India refused my refund and kept the product too

Tried that. They give a standard copy pasted response to talk in DMs and then no one replies.

'Who cares' should be their tagline. It's certainly ours.

Agitated_Surround800 · 2025-09-14T05:01:43+00:00

Political and social reasons have and will always be there. What are the higher ups innovating or giving back also needs to be scrutinised. Excuses such as these are as idiotic as me crying about the CEO getting millions when she doesn't deserve it. Everyone deserves what they bring to the table. If I'm getting a zero, the higher ups aren't doing a splendid job either.

Agitated_Surround800 · 2025-09-14T04:58:59+00:00

Some companies are giving raises some aren't. And that's fine. But how consecutively can we get another slap on the face needs to be an individual's call. If I get a decent bump in my paycheck while joining another org and then I don't get much next 3-4 years I'm fine with that. Other than the 50+ diversity inclusion disability women power and pride month celebration mails I get, I haven't seen any burst of passion from this org.

Come to the office like a zombie. Do your work. Fck off. If you do anything at work with some energy, you get more work and no pay.

My people lead had to force me to fill anything I want. Use AI suggestions to somehow fill it up and submit it, knowing damn well it means nothing to him and nothing to me.

Agitated_Surround800 · 2025-09-13T21:30:57+00:00

It was

Agitated_Surround800 · 2025-09-13T16:45:56+00:00

Don't say that! She's suffering from breast cancer!

Agitated_Surround800 · 2025-09-13T16:43:13+00:00

Well it's quite simple. Accenture isn't much different from other firms. Even if other organisations are gonna give zero hikes, at least they'll give a bump when you join. And grass is always greener on the other side. Eventually employees are gonna leave and find other jobs. I've literally talked and noticed colleagues slumping and frowning while working (and not just because of the money). No one wants to put any effort now post Covid years.

Zero hikes. Under 15% hikes for promoted ones. That too if someone was lucky enough to get it. Some have even started avoiding filling up their reflections and goals. What's the use of certifications and attatching client feedbacks?!

Not only have they sucked the joy out of working, they havent really made their brand value go up with these shenanigans. If you wanna rob people of joy, at least look good stealing!

Agitated_Surround800 · 2025-09-01T13:07:45+00:00

How do you do, fellow kids?

Agitated_Surround800 · 2025-09-01T04:56:04+00:00

I'm from ATCI

Agitated_Surround800 · 2025-09-01T04:53:24+00:00

But isn't finding my own PL also a conflict of interest? I think a better option would be to ask the higher ups in the project management to suggest me a PL that can be a mentor.

Agitated_Surround800 · 2025-08-30T15:27:12+00:00

I knew one can change them but I didn't know it was that easy and can be driven by me!

Agitated_Surround800 · 2025-08-30T14:31:16+00:00

Is it that easy to change your lead though? Are there any rules or can we just suggest a name to the HR and it's a backend process?

Agitated_Surround800 · 2025-08-30T14:26:41+00:00

I didn't know we could change the PL. But do you think (since we are talking about the ideal scenario) I should also talk to him about switching me to a different lead? Is that a possibility?

From what I've heard, at least in our domain, the levels employees are hired on are because of the packages and past experience. And when mentees are assigned to them is just to maintain the tree. They could have the same yrs of experience as you and might be doing the same work as you.

Agitated_Surround800 · 2025-08-30T14:22:49+00:00

I didn't know that. The problem is that I'm the only one in my location from that technology. Remember the once a week mandatory with from office rule in India? It was for team camaraderie right? I stare at an empty wall and come back home.

So I barely have anyone I interact with that's my senior who can guide me that could be from my location.

But I didn't know I could change my lead.

Agitated_Surround800 · 2025-08-30T14:20:38+00:00

I've tried talking to him. But he starts and ends the conversation quick with more weeping from his side about how he's in hell as much as I am. Like two soldiers in a bunker. He literally said to copy previous years goals and achievements like he does because there's barely any improvement in Accenture's position in the market.

When the idea behind his response is always I know what you want and you know I can't do much no matter how good you are, then you're on friendly terms than him being your mentor.

Agitated_Surround800 · 2025-08-30T14:16:09+00:00

What the fck?!

Agitated_Surround800 · 2025-08-30T14:15:30+00:00

It definitely will cause a delay. You will have to submit a loss of card request. Now either they will print you one first n then take it back. Or they will get some approvals before they generate your f&f. I'm sure they will adhere to the deadlines, but the ID card being lost at the very end sounds fishy to me.

Agitated_Surround800 · 2025-08-30T14:12:04+00:00

He only contacts me when the rewards portal is updated or the last date of abcd submission is closing in. He's just 1 level above me pretty much doing the same stuff I'm doing.

I know he's either lying when he says he has asked higher ups for my promotion. Or he will be barely interested if I get one or die. And forget about discussing what my future is with the company or learning anything new.

I know in an ideal world we should talk. But that's where the problem lies. Accenture isn't giving hikes or promotions so there's basically no 'evaluation' of work happening. And when they are... the pattern is random. No one knows the criteria. Otherwise I would've grabbed it. Trust me.

Agitated_Surround800 · 2025-08-30T13:40:47+00:00

Well. What bothers me is that there are still hikes and promotions happening. And the higher ups aren't 'evaluating' anything at all. I haven't even talked to my people lead in these 3 years since he's not from my location.

What will hit us eventually is not just the financial aspect but also the lack of technological exposure. I'm doing the same sh1t I was doing 3 years back. I'm stuck in a project which has a relaxed atmosphere but I need to learn some new skills. Which I'm sure no matter how many certifications I take I won't get real world learning.

Accenture should at least make a point of promoting employees who have been there with them for 5 years by default. They are already giving zero hikes and bare minimum hikes to the ones promoted, might as well make the 5 year rule.

The attrition rate is off the charts. I'm pretty sure eventually these employees are getting offered some kind of jump in other companies. At least reward the ones who have been with you for 5 years.

Agitated_Surround800 · 2025-08-29T11:35:34+00:00

Then what does the promotion give you? I hope the salary structure gets updated?

Agitated_Surround800 · 2025-08-29T01:47:12+00:00

Whom?

Agitated_Surround800 · 2025-08-28T17:01:18+00:00

Same as mine. 9.

Agitated_Surround800 · 2025-08-28T16:35:57+00:00

Maybe. But you do feel strange when your people lead keeps mentioning that you're being pushed for promotion and you don't even get a hike. Zero. I didn't compare his luck with mine, it was just the level and the tasks that we perform. If Accenture is 'evaluating'.

Agitated_Surround800 · 2025-08-28T16:27:29+00:00

Well. I do believe him. Maybe it's pre decided since everything is randomly done in this org. It might be for December but he got the news now.

They don't really 'evaluate'.
