Pros

Great way to obtain lots of useful skills like project management and client development. You can learn a lot through this firm. Some more reasons are that the firm can give you many opportunities to do jobs that most firms would not allow you to do without more experience. I am able to work with the client on work that normally would be reserved for more seasoned staff. Some of the people that work here are talented and a real pleasure to work with. I am paid reasonably well considering my little experience. Also, working here looks good on resumes.

Cons

Your time is not well respected. We are not compensated for the amount of time that we spend traveling to the client which can be significant. It is very easy to devote a year or more of your life to one client with little change in role or duties. I have wanted to look for other roles but I can not leave my current one because the client wants me to stay. Also, this is a very social-oriented job in that if you are not actively networking with others in the firm, you might not know about upcoming projects or roles.

Pros

Many aspects to appreciate while working at Accenture, whether it's amenities, flexibility but most importantly the office and company culture.

Cons

The pay isn't as good compared to other firms. If you are willing to take the cut but open to working with a team you enjoy, that's the trade off you'll have to be willing to consider.

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.
