Unsolicited email. I can’t make head nor tail of what they are trying to sell me. I feel like replying and saying I’m not looking for an optimised WX right now, but I do need someone to take photographs of all the trees in my neighbourhood and send them to Ted Danson every month, and is that a service they offer in their incomprehensible range?

Is it LinkedIn? Sounds like a recruiter is fishing for your cv. Or a marketing email to random ppl.

WX= workplace experience.

It’s just software I think.

Something to do with enhancing the workplace so people stay working there longer, are more productive make you loads of money and your company become mega famous so more ppl want to work for you and you become a multi billionaire I think. Blah blah blah.
Questionable marketing type of say.

It’s some kind of combined management and IT consultancy.

Lots of charges.......!

Accenture were advertising on tv recently (ad break of the Good fight on more 4) and I couldn’t work out what they were trying to get me to do or buy then either! My friend is a partner for then but he couldn’t explain either Confused

It's 'digital workspaces' formerly known as 'working from home', with some cloud products to pin it together.
Works fine until they realise your dealing with confidential information that can't be access from offshore and decide you can only access it using a VPN that's locked to your office location.
