[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]I had a weird experience interviewing with Accenture's federal practice in that they still expected managers to commit to 100% travel availability.  [/b]Not sure if that has changed, but it wasn't something I was interested in having inked into my terms of employment and then just hoping the company never acted on it.

From what I've heard from friends/former colleagues, Deloitte is very 'perform or you're out.'  Some people thrive on that, others hate it.  It's such a large company, though, that most people I know have managed to string together jobs/roles successfully over time.[/quote]
When was this? DC-based employees rarely, rarely travel. Regardless of level. However, this is still true with Accenture LLP.[/quote]
The travel is real... they will assign you to clients on the other side of the country and you will be there Monday - Thursday/Friday AM for months at a time.  You get a lot of points.  [/quote]
In AFS? I work for AFS. Almost all of our clients are DC-based. There are very few clients outside of DC. And some of the big ones are barely outside -Baltimore, PA, etc. What Fed client are you supporting that you fly to the West Coast every week? [/quote]
