Pros

Accenture offers a great benefits package that you can tailor to your needs. You can also tailor your benefits with your spouse for greater flexibility. The savings and employee stock purchase plan are also an extra benefit. There are many friendly people who work at Accenture. If you are looking to work in a friendly work environment, or with people that want to get together for a drink consider applying here. Accenture is involved in the community and supports a lot of local charities, holding fund raisers throughout the year. This is one very positive aspect of working with Accenture.

Cons

Accenture really promotes work/life balance in theory but doesn't practice it. There have been a lot of budget cuts going on and all departments are under staffed and over worked. The time reporting system is a disaster, designed by Accenture, and it is frustrating everyone. Annual reviews seem biased by Manager favouritism. Salaries are stagnated as more and more work gets offshored. If you are looking to be rewarded for your performance don't expect this to occur with Accenture. Promotions and project work are given to the same people over and over, the situation with promotions and projects is very similar to the annual reviews.

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.
