Pros

- Company is always changing and changing much more quickly than its clients (which is impressive given that ACN is huge) - Focus on people (well .. it is a people business) - Usually very nice colleagues and very good atmosphere within the company - Lots of training opportunities - Career Development opportunities in general (if you are willing to work hard). - Very good place if you want to get into management and leadership domain in the long run - Changing projects over time (and also industries) keeps you learning about different businesses and domains within a business (and has been a nice experience so far)

Cons

- Not the perfect place if you want to become a world-class sofware engineer changing the world directly working in cutting edge IT systems that serve as infrastructure (databases, messaging systems, ...) . ACN is not an IT tech innovator itself but it is an business and IT innovator for businesses that themselves are not IT companies (usually). - Typical projects at huge clients can be a bit boring (also related to constraints that clients put on the possible means to use in an IT project, but there are some very interesting ones from a technology point of view) - Entry level salaries are low (but rise as you climb the carreer ladder)

Pros

Allowed me to be an entrepreneur and be part of creating new intellectual capital. Supported my disability without question. Provided training in new technology.

Cons

Your career is built on you finding clients to bill your time against. In some cases, it may take longer than 30 days to locate the right opportunity.

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.
