Hit by the global economic slowdown. Accenture BPO is handing out single digit pay hikes. The company has announced a marginal increment for its middle level staff but is yet to announce the variable pay which is due by the end of March.

Also, employee promotions have currently been put on hold.

A report in the IT Examiner quoted one employee saying that there is no talk going in Accenture about the variable pay. “This means that it would be paid out like it was in the prior years. There was an increase in salary for whom it was due however there is no promotions. Apart from that, variable payout and sub-level movement is happening.”
