Pros

Great place to start your career, but career advancement into management positions is political. The people you tend to work with are very good and competent and you will learn a great deal at the firm. Usually the experience is valuable.

Cons

Promotions especially into Manager or Senior Manager roles are downright political. It digusts me to watch the great people not be promoted because of alliances. Again its a great start for your career, but usually salaries after time are below market and its becomes difficult at times to move up.

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.
