Pros

- Many opportunities to learn - if you'd like to specialize in a technology or industry, Accenture is a good place to do it - Challenging projects - Team members are generally supportive (although I have had some managers that treated the team poorly) - Clear career progression

Cons

- Depending on the project that you are on, you might have to travel extensively (even though I was based out of the Los Angeles office, I never worked on a local project) - Long hours - Some bureaucracy - Pay / benefits is ok compared to competitors - The company is huge, so you have to make sure to find your niche so you don't get lost

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.
