Pros

Accenture is a great place to start your career. You have the opportunity to do some amazing things as a new college graduate what you would not otherwise, and in as few as 5 years, you can make it to management. In general, the people are amazing. You will work with some of the brightest and most hardworking; however after a few years, all the best people tend to leave for school or more money else where. Other pros: 5 weeks of PTO, able to move up quickly

Cons

The single biggest con of working for Accenture is the salary. You will find that your peers at other firms are consistently paid more to do less. Accenture expects you to travel 100% if you're in consulting. You have the "option" to choose local roles, but know that it will absolutely impact your career if you are unable to travel. Once you're aligned to a group, it is extremely difficult to move laterally, especially if there is high demand in your current alignment.

Pros

It is a famous company, (But is losing its reputation, as I know some of its outsourcing clients are trying to bring in competition to replace Accenture step by step) Good internal knowledge sharing.

Cons

The offshore strategy for outsourcing Unit is too bad to onshore employee. Accenture is moving more and more position from NA to offshore, despite the skill, management and work efficiency of the offshore team will cause very bad performance and bad service level to the client. And cause very lower morale among onshore team. Consulting team is somewhat like bodyshop, and earn profit by bringing junior consultant to the client, and the delivery buggy and lower performance application with badly delayed schedule. Even it is a company relay on people and their skill, but in some outsourcing site, it is not respect to skill but more on personal relationship. Trying charge much more than it should to client by propose much higher labor hours estimation.
