Pros

Quality of clients and good access to the consultant base, the large engagements in Detroit are isolated from the rest of the firm but if you work you can get access to the knowlege sharing databases etc. When working for Accenture I had far better access to talented people. In general the consulting staff was far more competent than the local yokals hired to staff at the client. Most were people from non consulting backgrounds or from industry. Their thought leadership was limited. However the consulting resources from the true consulting organization were highly skilled.

Cons

The downsides are if you are staffed long term with one of their large business process outsourcing groups you may not get senior leadership with the wide levels of experience and client backgrounds that you get in a true consulting org. If you are with consulting services the standard for an employee is higher and the quality of leadership is higher.

Pros

there are no pros for this company

Cons

I was laid off after spending several months on the bench, with "lack of available projects" cited as the reason. However, another consultant in the same role who was also without an active client engagement was retained. As a woman and racial minority, I could not ignore the disparity in how these decisions appeared to be made. Before my termination, I reported being recorded without my consent and raised concerns about conduct that I believed reflected implicit bias. I was referred to as "URM" instead of by my name or role, encouraged toward race based employee resource groups rather than meaningful career opportunities, and repeatedly advocated for fair project placement while on the bench. My employment ended shortly after I raised these concerns. Following my termination, I pursued the matter through the appropriate internal and legal channels. I provided documentation supporting my concerns and gave the company multiple opportunities to investigate and resolve the issues. Rather than meaningfully addressing the evidence or acknowledging the seriousness of the allegations, the company denied wrongdoing, offered what I viewed as a nominal severance, and declined to accept accountability. Employees deserve confidence that concerns about discrimination and retaliation will be investigated objectively and fairly. My experience left me with the opposite impression.
