Pros

Good projects for good clients, many opportunities to stretch. Very good colleagues with opportunities to share expertise and tap into a company-wide knowledge network. Great benefits, especially vacation time.

Cons

Very long hours and extremely heavy workload. You need to play the networking and internal politics game very well to progress - performance review is heavily influenced by who you know and who knows about your work, and without a good rating it's very hard to advance. Salaries are not good and it's very hard to get an increase once you've joined.

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.
