Pros

- Great benefits - Extensive tools and processes to help you perform your consulting work - Great place to learn leadership and how to develop your people

Cons

Accenture has many roles available that will prepare you for the Consulting world but the movement to the top and to the time it takes to get there is way too long. This causes people to get stuck in the same little roles that does not allow you to have enough ownership and direction of the project. Accenture also has the tendency to set high expectations with their clients which ends up burning out their people and lowering their morale.

Pros

There are a lot of pros working for Accenutre. They have great career opportunities, a never ending supply of interesting work, competitive compensation, wonderful benefits, great people, wonderful training programs, a tremendous number of brilliant professionals in their fields ready to help, and great core values.

Cons

This is not an opportunity for those that do not want to work. At Accenture everyone has a load of work to do and often times under very tight customer time lines. It is a challenge that I enjoy but many might find it stressful.
