Accenture Expands Salary Hikes with New Payout Model

Accenture, a big IT services company, has changed how it gives salary raises.

Now, if you get a raise, half of it goes to your regular pay, and the other half is a one-time bonus.

This way, more employees get raises, and the company doesn't spend too much on salaries.

For example, if you get a 3% raise, 1.5% goes to your regular pay, and 1.5% is a one-time bonus.

People who get promoted still get their whole raise in regular pay.

The one-time bonus doesn't replace the yearly bonus given in December.

Both the raise and the bonus will be used to calculate next year's bonus.

If you're in special programs like VEIP or ESPP, the usual deductions will be taken from the one-time bonus.
