Pros

Great name to add to your resume. Filled with young go-getters and very knowledgeable people. Projects area always something of vital importance, lots of opportunity to learn

Cons

Cutthroat office politics favor brown-nosers and cute blondes over hard workers and great ideas. "Up or out" career path creates more management than actual workers, which creates a terrible work life balance at the lower ranks. Pay far below average for entry level people, which creates huge turnover and morale issues among the workers. Management rarely comprehends complex technical problems which they are contracted to remedy, which often results in impossible project timelines

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.
