Pros

I was thrown into a lot of projects which at first is very scary. But jumping in, helped me learn A LOT. I have been able to work from home for the past couple years which has been nice as well. I also felt the compensation was fair for the work I was doing. They also offer trainings which are nice (both online based and classroom based). They also do a nice all day meeting with SR Execs and lunch when you get a promotion. There's also a lot of networking and social opportunities since a lot of the employees are on different projects.

Cons

Onboarding was a challenge. My first day, they didn't give me a specific time to meet. I came early (around 7:30) and ended up waiting a few hours for the HR Rep to come in. I think it was just a miscommunication but I was wondering if I had a job or not. I also had to start at the client project that same day and did not have orientation until two weeks later. While trying to figure out my client project work, I had to do some mandatory trainings and coordinate going to orientation at the same time. This was a challenge. I'm glad I stuck through it though. It has been worth it.

Pros

Many aspects to appreciate while working at Accenture, whether it's amenities, flexibility but most importantly the office and company culture.

Cons

The pay isn't as good compared to other firms. If you are willing to take the cut but open to working with a team you enjoy, that's the trade off you'll have to be willing to consider.

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.
