Trending @Accenture; Do I need to accept a new project before I join?
I'm going to join Accenture in the first week of January. My manager recently called up and asked me to join a project which needs me to WFO 5 days a week. During the interview I was told WFO will be once a week. Can I refuse saying that it won't be possible and to give another project? I live 30 km away from the office. Traveling 5 days a week in Bangalore will take a toll on my health with all the metro construction going on, it'll take 4-5 hours per day on the commute. Additionally, it will also dig a hole in my pocket. Any suggestions are welcome.

Refuse the project. Health and finances are more important. Demand what was promised during interview.

Sure, I'm refusing as of now. They are trying to force me. Will this be an issue after I join? Politics wise? Will the manager hold a grudge against me?
