Pros

Be part of the consulting industry with glamorous image

Cons

For experience hired, please be aware, you always have to look for work, on your first day, after your return trip from Q-Center. You are competing constantly, directly with your team, for work in order to stay employed ( either competing with low cost structure regions - SF / LA v.s. TX, AZ; or India vs. US, etc.). This model set you up for failure, right out of the box. When you are submitting the proposal for a project, you have to factor more than 60 percent off shore staffs, and smaller portion of US based, and even smaller US portion if you are in the higher cost region, such as San Francisco. And if you are based in the West Coast, you are out of luck. Be aware before you quit your job. It's a very high turn over industry

Pros

Allowed me to be an entrepreneur and be part of creating new intellectual capital. Supported my disability without question. Provided training in new technology.

Cons

Your career is built on you finding clients to bill your time against. In some cases, it may take longer than 30 days to locate the right opportunity.

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.
