      Good place to work if you are ok traveling all the time.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Lots of varied roles across multiple clients. Allows people to develop broad range of skills and expertise. Career path leads to constant drive to continue to better yourself.

      Cons

      Expected to travel to out of town assignments on a full time basis regardless of personal preference. This can get extremely tiring after a short period of time.

      A good place to build a career, if you have the perseverance to stay on

      Consultant
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Pervasive company branding - Exposure to key industry players - Face time with clients - Great internal tools, e.g. intranet, blogs, wikis, communities, podcasts - Overseas training once you reach the Consultant level (though that may change....) - Growing emphasis on pro-bono work/ CSR initiatives

      Cons

      - Some internal politicking when it comes to performance reviews and annual 'banding', where you are rated amongst your peers - Inconsistent experience across projects - Work life balance is out of your hands - Difficult to secure cross-country transfers - VERY technology-focused - most projects are systems-integration (SI)-related, even if you are tagged to the "Management Consulting" (MC) space - Limited strategy work - very implementation/execution focused - Compensation is adequate but not stellar, standard benefits (but good compared to local firms)

      Experiences Vary Widely

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Opportunity to take on new roles and responsibilities frequently Opportunity to travel Good benefits The projects and clients can be very interesting - often highly publicized roadmap projects for the client

      Cons

      Potential to get 'stuck' at a bad client or project (your current client/project takes precedence over any other opportunities) Experience highly dependent on your project and its management. Some management take advantage of this - to require unpaid overtime, for example. Disconnect between on-project performance and Accenture promotions/salary Potential to work a lot of hours Overtime paid only for hours above 120% - your normal salary for the first 40 hours in the week, then the next 8 would be unpaid (40-48). Any hours above 49 would be paid out.
