Accenture sued over website redesign so bad it Hertz
I work for a fairly large corporation that was looking at Accenture (among other firms) to help augment our team on a complete revamp of a current web product. By the time we were taking RFP&#x27;s and listening to pitches, we as a company had already chosen the stack and architecture of how we wanted this new product to be. It wasn&#x27;t anything out of the ordinary: Typescript with React &#x2F; Redux with various services hosted on AWS.<p>All the firms we spoke to were onboard with this and continued on with their proposals except Accenture. One of their lead devs was extremely combative and trying to tell us that going with Angular was a much better idea &#x2F; React is a failure. On top of this, they kept pitching that they were going to rewrite all the backend services, which was not part of the RFP or even brought up as something wanted.<p>It really felt like they already had a generic turnkey product in place and wanted to sell us that instead.
