Pros

Working for Accenture will mean plenty of travel (some good destinations some not so good), the opportunity to work along-side other smart people that have joined Accenture for the salary + brand and finally working for some very large clients.

Cons

Accenture doesn't offer the most personable environment and as a consultant you would be moved about onto projects sometimes without even your own knowledge. You are paid well and have a great name on your CV so in return you are expected to give most of your free time to the firm. As an employee you will need to take charge of your career and should expect little help from HR. It's a big firm so expect a lot of politics.

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.
