Pros

Accenture is a great company with a lot of market acceptance and clients. Benefits are above average, culture is good and if you are a recent grad and stay for most of your career it can be a fantastic place to work.

Cons

If you are a sales resource, especially a professional hire be prepared to work at an organization that does not value you. That looks at you as someone that is looking for a commission first and adding value second and be prepared to spend most of your time dealing with internal BS to get on the right deals. After you are on a deal, you will need to fight to stay on and work HARD to make sure you do not get screwed out of the commission when you win. This company does not apply its sales commission process uniformly, it is very subjective and it can leave you high and dry on earnings. My advice is to get into delivery, follow the Managing Director track and conform to the old culture or be prepared to get very very frustrated and miss out on what is rightly owed to you.

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.
