Business Outlook
Pros
- Many opportunities to learn - if you'd like to specialize in a technology or industry, Accenture is a good place to do it - Challenging projects - Team members are generally supportive (although I have had some managers that treated the team poorly) - Clear career progression
Cons
- Depending on the project that you are on, you might have to travel extensively (even though I was based out of the Los Angeles office, I never worked on a local project) - Long hours - Some bureaucracy - Pay / benefits is ok compared to competitors - The company is huge, so you have to make sure to find your niche so you don't get lost
