Pros
The company at least on the surface and all of its material wants you to do the responsible thing with clients: create value, treat their data with respect, work hard for them, and deliver on time. The benefits package: vision, medical, dental etc is adequate. Compensation is probably on average or just below industry level. With over 200k in headcount you can't be above the industry average. The company has logistical support departments to help you travel, manage emergencies, and relocate to another country.
Cons
1. Managers can be vindictive and abusive. One standard for them and another for everyone below. 2. Smart workers usually leave because they are too busy coding and delivering to actually care about petty politics, CYA and butt kissing. 3. This company is anything but a meritocracy. They spend more time encouraging you to 'network' to get on projects, rather than rely on your own skills and experince. 4. The worst aspect of working for accenture is that the 'managers', and 'senior managers' become lifers and have no discernible skills of their own. At that point, they flock to projects before everyone else does because of their connections. Then they bill the client like it's going out of style and bring in all of their friends from around the continent. They claim flights, hotels, per diems and rental cars. This jacks up the cost to the client, nothing is delivered in the requirements, plan and design phase. All they produce are spreadsheets, visio diagrams and powerpoint slides. With millions spent and nothing but provisioning models and a barrage of three letter acronyms (TLAs), the client generally denies more bodies on the projects, shuts it down or descopes it, sues Accenture and cuts its losses. I've saw this happen consistently. 5. When it comes to promotions and ratings, people are rated against their peers which is fair. But for one person to sit on the bench all the while they're struggling and willing to do whatever it takes to get on even most undesirable roles only to get no response from the role contacts is simply a good reason for a consultant or analyst to bail from the company.
