Overview

• Accenture will promote nearly 50,000 employees globally in June 2025, representing about 6% of its workforce, after a six-month delay due to reduced consulting demand.
• Of the promotions, 15,000 will occur in India, 11,000 in Europe, the Middle East, and Africa, and 10,000 in the Americas, reflecting the company's global footprint.
• The company announced salary increases ranging from 3% to 13% for Associate Manager-level roles and above, marking the first pay hikes in over two years.
• Base pay adjustments will focus on critical growth areas, while decisions on bonuses and equity awards have been deferred until December 2025.
• Accenture's strategic moves come as it navigates economic uncertainty, margin pressures, and heightened scrutiny of U.S. government contracts under regulatory changes.
