Pros

For being as big of a company as they are, Accenture does a fairly good job listening to their employees. I am always impressed with how seriously they take the annual global survey results. I believe Bill Green is a great CEO, but unfortunately, I don't think his philosophy trickles down too far into the ranks.

Cons

One of Accenture’s biggest weaknesses is with the performance review and promotion process. It’s all about your tenure, who you know, and what project you’re on at the end of the performance year. Despite their claims, Accenture is not meritocracy. While I’ve been lucky with my promotions and pay raises, I’ve seen too many very smart, hard working individuals get passed over simply b/c of politics. Many end up being driven out of the company...

Pros

- Good place to get lots of experience - Good if you get a good first project - good benefits

Cons

- substandard pay for all the sacrifice and work you put in - sucking up is the only way to get ahead...get ready for some huge egos! - get ready for cute young college girls to be hired in straight out of school with zero experience and get promoted past you due to their "outstanding capabilities"
