Pros

Has quota for women and promotions for women, pay is good if you join as experienced hire

Cons

unspoken culture of "office first, family later", work becomes stagnant since most project are support based, working on challenging assignments is a matter of luck not merit, senior managers will gaslight employees, expect to be treated like a machine not a human, you could lose your job anytime, very little opportunity to grow, managers don't adhere to policies, expect retaliation if asking for roll off, expect salary cuts, future decided by managers mood not merit, not business impacts

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.
