Pros

Internationally renowned company; potential to work on high profile projects. The other consultants I worked with came from a variety of different backgrounds. This was both a positive and negative. It was positive in that the diversity led to well-rounded project teams; however, it was frustrating to work on teams with people who had very little background or substantive knowledge of the assigned industry. I would say that Accenture is a good starting off point if you are interested in the world of consulting and/or business. The people I encountered were generally hard-working, intelligent and responsible. On the whole, I did not find the work to be particularly challenging or intellectually stimulating.

Cons

My entry level position consisted of a lot of coding and data analysis - not much client interaction.

Pros

Great way to get experience working with social media companies, learned a lot about politics, news, advertising, social media company, marketing, job postings and tech sales. In the project I was part of I learned a lot about the world. Most of my bosses were genuinely amazing but I did cycle through a good few. You learn a lot about working with fortune 100 clients. The consultants are nice to work with. You get experience training people, working with a wide variety of teams. Pretty good pay for my experience at the time, the hiring team is very nice and the hiring process was easy. Also I was given a therapist due to the nature of the work. Also got an hour of paid wellness, which was nice but I think that just extended the workday by one hour for no real reason. It does feel like important and purposeful work.

Cons

The project I was assigned to was not as traumatic as some other ones thankfully. But you see a lot of things, you see how crazy the world and the internet can be, which in these times can be hard to watch. I didn't get an annual raise.

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.
