Pros
Flex in where you live. True to form for being a consultant, you can live anywhere you choose as long as you are near an airport. When you do get to be home, you can manage your schedule to a degree. Although you will have to work on global hours, you can conduct virtual meetings very early in the morning and be quite productive for a few hours before waking the kids up and participating in their morning routine, being there for them and getting them off to school. You can better choose which trade-offs you will make and when you will make them.
Cons
As a young company, they are making all of the same mistakes companies usually make in trying to grow up. They are going through all of the "too aggressive" cost initiative programs where they invest enourmous amounts of efforts to save pennies, excluding the bigger, end to end picture in the process. Accenture is very tactically focused and has not realized that they have to invest money in their future that the customers should not be billed for today. Accn has a zero balance sheet process and pass off all costs to clients, including the cost of infighting over the dreaded WBS Element - the internal "rebill" process that accounts for who pays for what. Although this may make sense on the consulting side, on the business side it gets in the way of doing business every day. Instead of role based employees doing what needs to be done, they always have to consider who is paying for every breathe by the hour or else work does not get done. Additioanlly, they have launched a disasterous Operational Excellence Program that is staffed by a fleet of Honeywell Manufacturing Robots that brut force cost savings through the system. They act like internal thugs, beating on contract managers and operations people to cut off their arms and leggs under the code name "lean." The pay is average and there is no sense of security as the Senior Execs that suck up most of the comp in the company (with many making in excess of a million a year that all gets billed back to the clients) will lay off people in a blink if there is any risk of them not meeting their number - gotta keep their bonus on that million for sure. Overall, Accn has lost its way since going public, is too big now to move in a cohesive dirction and Bill Green and Corp are so out of touch with reality that this young company has become a vanilla has been in young adulthood.
