Pros

In my experience, Accenture is among the strongest technology consulting firms. Not only do they deliver well, they combine it with strong understanding of the business. Though I'm sure other firms have their strengths, my opinion is that Accenture leads when it comes to delivering business solutions as opposed to just installing systems.

Cons

Work-life balance can be hard. It's probably no worse than at other firms, but it would be difficult to succeed with fewer than 60 hrs per week. Sr management typically lets you manage your own time, but client expectations and the need to support internal initiatives often makes it hard to balance in practice.

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.
