Pros

Opportunities to progress one's career are endless at Accenture! I continue to be excited for wherever my career progresses as their are countless roads one can take and find success. Also, the people are great. ACN only hires the best of the best out there leaving the rest for IBM and Deloitte to employ (please! I'm only joking... kind of). Everyday I am able to learn something new from the incredible people I work with. Third, you have the opportunity to travel if you like, or the option not to travel if you prefer. ACN is very cognizant of yur wants in a career and work hard to respect that.

Cons

ACN is a highly competitive place to work. You compete against everybody at your promotion level, everybody at your client, everybody in you business unit, and ultimately every single on eof the 180,000 employees hired at Accenture. This can be difficult for many people to deal with. A word to the wise: Don't be afraid to grow some thick skin at ACN. Doing so will make you a better employee and you will be more respected the tougher your skin gets. What I mean is, don't be offended by feedback. Question it and get clarification and then apply it, but do not be a roll-over. It's hard to respect somebody who thinks they do a bad job.

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.
