      Accenture is a good place for the highly motivated

      Technology consulting analyst

      Pros

      Accenture is a large company where you can make many connections and move up quickly. Regardless of where you come in, there is a lot of opportunity to explore a breadth of options to focus your career on. There is a lot of flexibility and many of my co-workers have switched industries, workgroups, or locations. The work/life balance is better than some other consulting companies.

      Cons

      A lot of what goes into promotions and annual reviews is who you know and who is willing to stand up for you. The pay and bonuses are not as good as some other consulting companies and there are also long hours, travel, and little work/life balance.

      Good experience, but not worth the abuse and low pay

      Pros

      Accenture is a well respected name in IT. If you are looking tor a career in IT then you probably cannot get a better start anywhere than at ACN. A few years at ACN is work twice that outside of consulting.

      Cons

      They work you like a dog and don't pay what you are worth in the market. There is still a "firm" mentality at ACN despite the fact that there is no longer the firm upside if you stay to make partner (now senior exec). You will not get rich working for ACN but you will be expected to work as if you will be at the end of the day. Don't drink the Kool Aid, your lost potential earnings somewhere else is more valuable than anything you will get out of ACN.

      6 months in - love the work/life balance

      Financial analyst

      Pros

      Great work life balance. PTO includes sick + time off. As analyst you get about 24 days PTO + 9 holidays + 1 floating holiday. Also, employees working for 6 months may work from home 1 day per pay period and employees working 1+ years may work from home 1 day a week. (this may only be in my area) But peers have said they also have flexibility to work from home early on. The people are young and there are a lot of opportunities to network at fun outside work events - especially happy hours. The working from home and outside events keep employee morale high. They tell you early on your career path and the time it takes to be promoted from analyst to specialist to manager. Changes/advances in technology and policy seem to come quickly. Small but nice - ice + cold water dispenser, iced tea, hot chocolate, and coffee all provided with all beverage accessories on every floor. They also provide cups, plates, utensils, napkins etc. Just kind of nice... I have received good feedback on a few occasions- in addition an award system is in place in which points can be used to purchase a wide variety of cool stuff like playstation games or anything you could think of. A good summer intern program allows college students to experience as an analyst for a summer.

      Cons

      My area has a monthly cycle. When things are slow - they are really slow. The pay could be better - however I have yet to receive my first performance review/salary increase/bonus so I can't really describe that. The performance reviews are based on a "bureaucracy" meaning they judge you on how well you do in comparison to other ppl in your position. Since there are many contracts with different amounts of consulting and outsourcing I think this makes it more difficult to access people on the same scale.
