The debt of Accenture doubled a year ago:

Accenture plc's Total Debt

Accenture is more or less without products; it's just more of a Microsoft and GAFAM outsourcer, mostly Microsoft's. Sometimes it does some reselling for Salesforce, IBM and Oracle, but Microsoft is its main "master" - though Accenture wants us to quit using that word.

In recent years we saw and reported on many layoffs there [1, 2].

Microsoft's debt grew by more than 50% in just 2.5 years. Accenture's debt has doubled since August 31 2024.

Maybe selling people slop (Ponzi scheme) isn't working out too well.
