Not suitable for Business Consulting career

Management consulting manager

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Employees come from diverse backgrounds creating a rich work environment

Cons

Accenture is fast becoming unsuitable for employees who want to pursue a business consulting career. The firm is becoming a markedly IT focused firm and core business and management consulting opportunities and advancement potential for business consulting individuals is becoming scarce due to very limited work sold in this area. This imbalance is becoming so marked that employees with a business consulting background are increasingly expected by Management to do IT contractor work as IT work is now Accenture's "Bread & Butter".

Good place to work but watch your back.

Business Outlook

Pros

There are some really talented committed people working at Accenture who will do what it takes to help others whether they are clients, fellow employees, prospective clients, or people and organizations in their communities.

Cons

Unfortunately, there seems to be a balance between the talented committed people working here and the not so talented (but bright) self-centered, self-promoting individuals who are looking out only for themselves and their success. This holds true for most consulting organizations (I've been with three of the big ones so I've got some experience here). The trouble is you usually can't tell the difference between good and evil consultants until they have done damage - usually to you.
