Pros

Working at Accenture means a lot of access to many resources, both across industries and functions. There's a great internal network where one can just email or call someone they don't know to get advice when working on projects.

Cons

Accenture is way too big, meaning that the average employee is completely lost in the shuffle. Whereas the size of the company should create flexibility to experience different projects and move oneself towards career goals, we're constantly finding that unless you are a superstar, most people are pulled in directions that fits the company needs first, even if it's completely unrelated to the employee's development goals. Also, compensation is lower than most other consulting firms.

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.
