Great First Job if You Have Nothing Better to Do
Pros
-Roles that require travel give you a lot of cool freebies (airline miles, hotel points, per diem, etc) in exchange for having any sort of home life. -Name is recognizable to future employers.
Cons
-Salary scale is very crooked, it's common for 2 employees with the exact same education and exact same levels of experience to have very different salaries. If you're working at Accenture, you're being underpaid. -Staffing is a joke. It's your responsibility to get staff and Talent Fulfillment Specialists do little more than berate you for not being staffed. Expect to constantly be job hunting within your job. -There is a lot of politics involved with growing your career. Advancement is never really under your control. Your career counselor is responsible for attending review meetings and stating your case as to why you should receive a raise or promotion, however career counselors have multiple people they're counseling so you won't really get the attention you'd need. Managers on long projects will do whatever it takes to keep you within their project's budget, to your detriment. -Management makes Sesame Street look like a think tank. They often lie to customers and agree to impossible deadlines. I once attended a sales call where they straight up lied to the potential customer about pricing but were thankfully caught.
