Pros

Excellent benefits for mid-sized consulting firm, mostly smart people, some great projects, decent community activities. Great networking opportunities, and wins work in fun places to travel to.

Cons

worrisome review process with little employee involvement, up-or-out mentality that makes some tech-friendly folk leave and keep only the business-friendly. Slowly being taken over by Accenture in policies and work assignments. Losing a lot of the young-company perks that made it a hit with its employees.

Pros

A really nice office with perks and company culture that come from Accenture.

Cons

There is a prioritization with getting certifications and doing a lot of tasks outside of full time client work, just to get promoted. If you are in the bench and it’s a slow season, there is a high risk of getting laid off. You will lose your sense of purpose all for the trendy AI culture. The company thrives on buzz terms and marketing solutions rather than actually solving anything.
