Pros

Good career advancement program. Great leadership. Diverse projects. Global network. Very ethical company. Good overall long term benefits. Corporate culture.

Cons

You don't get much time to do anything else than work. The promotion criteria are NOT clear. Non-project contributions are more valued at times. They hire almost EVERYONE and the burden of ramping up unskilled employees fall to the team leads. Salary is not market-competitive at lower levels.

Pros

Accenture has a culture of empowerment - what I like most about the company. People are encouraged to be the best they can be. Most employees are very professional, and live the core values of integrity and respect for the individual. There is open communication and knowledge sharing, and everyone is encouraged to voice out their ideas. People are recognized and valued for their contributions. Plus you get to work with really good, talented, and smart people. A company that I really looked forward going to everyday. During my more than 3 years stay in the company, I've worked with some of the best leaders and people I've ever worked with in my IT career. Definitely learned a LOT from them. Definitely a great place to work (for the right people, I guess). A company I may consider working for again in the future :)

Cons

The workload and deadlines are a bit demanding so you have to be really good at managing your time to be able to maintain work/life balance. But you are growing and learning a lot in exchange, so not really bad at all. The compensation is not very market-competitive, but the training you'll get is definitely one of the best ;)

Pressure to work long hours for extended periods due to client and Accenture expectations. Often extra curricular activities can add up to 10+ hours a week
