Pros

-Great place to learn, you can be involved in diverse range of industries -Some trainings are fun especially overseas ones! -Lots of social events being held for the employees, very good for networking

Cons

-Annual review process can be disappointing, people in big projects have a better chance for promotions. Networking with senior ppl will help a lot... -Salaries are below market value -Hard to get out of a project even though you are not doing what you want for your career.. -Hours can be long at times (~10-12 hours per day)

Pros

Great place to start a career. I learned a ton, got to see lots of different types of companies, and enjoyed my time at ACN.

Cons

Project selection can vary widely. They don't want you sitting 'on the bench' so whatever project picks you is where you'll go for your first project.

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.
