Trending @Accenture; Career Advice needed - working as PMO since 4 months
I joined Accenture as a fresher. Got trained in oracle database administration. But was given PMO role by HR becoz was on bench for 3 months.
Now my question is- Is there scope of growth in PMO role? I was planning to switch after 1.5-2 years at Acn but PMO roles outside are very limited as per linkedin.
Any one from PMO role who can advice me on this and what companies and other similar roles I could target?
TIA
If you are not that interested in tech roles then PMO is fine , compared to tech roles the pay is less but will not have the pressure they have
In terms of other opportunities I got an offer letter from Big4 for PMO itself with 40% hike
It pains me to see people ignoring Long term goals for short term goals...if you are okay to compromise your technical goals..I wish all the best to you,you get all the success you hope for!!
My project PMO switched to barclays as scrum master
That sounds promising. I ll keep this in mind when I switch
For every role there will be some growth. Even if it has less openings still there could be some companies looking out for that role. But your career will go towards management side than technical one. And you will have to work more towards your presentation, communication and confidence level. Then even you can jump into BA roles and there is lots of scope, onsite opportunities as well. Here you may get chance to gain knowledge in tech n non tech as well.
Dont wait for any time period to switch. Pmo roles are for bcomm ba guys(even they prepare for cat etc) as a btech graduate you should join any tech role in other company even with same or less pay. These early 1-2 years of your career will define your life.
Started preparing for other roles as well..
No leave as early as you can.
Job market is bad right now. Cant leave without offer
50 years back..we were being directly ruled by brits.. Now we are ruled by these organisations..unfortunately we cant do anything..I feel we are still in Ghulami era..having said that-I consider myself as Ghulam too..the very first ghulam ig
Try to get project roles as per your training I would say, ask for roll off or tell them you need a role switch. But totally depends upon you, what you want to cont with in your career.
That's the worst role you can be in
