Pros

Working at ACN helps you built strong overall skill set. The exposure to the different types of companies, projects in different department, gives you an opportunity to have great exposure to build understading in regards to what companies do and how to do things better. I am extremely glad to have worked for ACN, as the learning experience of working there tought me a great deal.

Cons

At ACN you should expect to work long hours, not have a lot of time for personal life, travel to random destinations. You will not always have projects that are within your desired career development path, but are more around what skills you have from previous projects and the need for people to staff projects. Compensation wise, don't go to work to ACN for the money. Their structure is not competetive until you get to manager.

Pros

The Perks we receive from the job like traveling, and staying in a hotel while getting frequent flier miles and hotel points. The work is never boring, we get to pick different projects around the country and even internationally. People in the company respect each other, and the willingness to help others whenever possible. The ability to pick up different skills and become the jack of all trades while going through multiple projects. Work life balance is respected by the senior management, we get 25 days of paid time off per year compare to the standard 15 days offered by other companies.

Cons

The downsides of working at Accenture would be the growth oppotunity, the annual performance rating system is done on a ladder system. We are rated by our project, and then on the account level, and finally on the company level. If you are rated at the very top on your account level, there is still the possibility to downgrade when you get rated to the next level. The amount of employee around the globe makes it very difficult to get the best deserving rating within the company. This laddering system makes it harder for the average Joe to make it through the system.
