Pros

Exposure to large deals coming from Accenture. Majority of projects are sold by Accenture. Benefits are good, but not as good as Microsoft. Great training is provided to develop technical skills

Cons

Employee reviews are not accurate. They tell you one thing and then surprises at end of year. HR does not stand up to managers, even when they are innacurate and wrong. when you complain of injustice nothing happens. Lots of travel required so work life balance is not good. pay is lower than market.

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.
