Pros

- global company, market leader - opportunity to grow if focused and skills - below SE levels, real attempts at meritocracy given the context - grows professional relationship skills across major companies - large scale enterprise project exposure - has weathered the storm of consolidation, will continue to be a global leader - people

Cons

- growth and size has ensured the "old" consulting culture is no longer there - latest re-org has resulted in loss of talent and high degree of institutional knowledge en-masse - junior folks are expected to be able to navigate their own career direction, yet are often pulled into roles that are not matching these goals that can implicate longer term roles, so mixed messages - no more "carrot" for making SE/Partner, overall focus is still heavy large SI - increasing focus on specialization creates barriers/blinders

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.
