What is the training like for a fresher in an Indian IT company?
Thousands of freshers join the Indian IT industry every year. Most of them go through a rigorous training period before they are put onto real projects. One only needs to have a look at any of the social networking sites to see thousands of posts asking for guidance on how they can prepare themselves better for the training and what life is like during the training.

There has been quite a few comments on the net against Accenture’s core values. I just quit yesterday. Its the most wise thing I have done in my life. Its disgusting to experience and observe the horror unfolding in the company. Its just a matter of time when ACN will become another Blue-chip company loosing its clothes in public because of bad corporate practises.
To those who are researching the company before you join them : These days having Accenture experience goes against you in the industry as the entire Tech services sector considers Accenture work culture to be appalling. And hence anyone from Accenture is considered as ‘AIDS’. I’m not being vindictive, just plain frank.
You can bid you skills goodbye by being with them as it is never encouraged. I was in the Manager level after having extensive IT experience in the industry and a degree from Stanford. The politics practised by everyone from team lead and up have made the environment toxic. Which any imbecile knows is a recipe for disaster.
Now that I work for a fantastic financial institution, I really pity the ones still stuck there due to the recession.
