Ireland based tech giant Accenture, which employs over 750,000 people across 120 countries, is reportedly delaying the majority of its employees' promotions by six months. 

Last week, the company informed employees that most promotions will be announced in June 2025 instead of December 2024 timeframe, Bloomberg reported, citing sources. 

In October 2023 Accenture announced that it would not be providing salary increases to its employees in India and Sri Lanka in 2023, except where legally required or where commitments were made in critical skill areas. 

The company employs over 300,000 people in India.

IPS N. Ambika broke all odds and cracked the UPSC exams to become an IPS officer


Married at 14 and a mother by 18, N Ambika's journey to becoming an IPS officer is a tale of unwavering resolve. 

Initially, a formal education seemed out of reach for her, but a Republic Day parade that she witnessed with her police officer husband changed everything.

The respect and authority of senior officers sparked her desire to follow a similar path.

Despite being a school dropout with young children, Ambika was determined.
She completed Class 10, and Class 12, graduated through distance learning and relocated to Chennai for better coaching.

Her supportive husband managed childcare, allowing her to focus on her studies. After three attempts, Ambika’s perseverance finally paid off in 2008 when she aced the IPS exam and achieved her dream!
