Pros

Brand image good training opportunities lot of resources have really sound technical knowledge good policies and processes alumni network for those leaving the company

Cons

Politics..politics..politics Most often policies and processes are not followed, even by HR promotion and oppotunties goes to the favorites of management lack of good leadership skills at junior and middle management levels sometimes it appears that junior and middle management feels insecure and threatened by smarter team members

Pros

I was at Accenture for 5.5 years. It was great, but the company doesn't really care about it's people. Just know that it's a great resume builder and the leadership opportunities are good. The company highers really smart and personable people, but many get corrupted later on or just decide to leave. - Great real business world experience - Good benefits - Great "management" training

Cons

Just know what you want to get out of it and then leave. You may regret the day that you made serious sacrifices to prove that you are doing high performing work. The people will use you like a bag of sand and then throw you away...translation...you will spend many long nights on the road, working hard to meet ridculous deadlines and then will not get the performance rating that you deserve. - Excessively political - Good old boys place - Cut throat environment - Crappy pay - Only diverse at the bottom

Pros

Accenture is a good career starter out of university, as it has a good brand name and begins with a good training curriculum. The salaries for new joiners out of university used to be very good (becoming less so). Good amount of vacation time and good healthcare. Travelling, although tiring after a while, can be exciting for new Analysts and Consultants.

Cons

The pay has been severely degraded over the last few years, making the salary not so competitive with the market. All the good people are smart enough to leave early, and the very bad people are managed out, leaving a group of mediocre managers and senior managers (with a few exceptions). Once you become specialised in one area, the company will not support you to transfer to another area or learn new skills.
