Pros

The Accenture brand is extremely strong globally. Having Accenture on your resume, with a few years of experience will greatly help you in your next job! Remember, this place is rated very high (don't remember the number) in the "Top 100 Places to Start Your Career".

Cons

It's a great place to "start" your career (read: come here for a year or two, and then LEAVE!). It's not a great place to build and establish your career... unless you absolutely love Outsourcing related projects. There are other places that have much stronger reputations in the area of management consulting (McKinsey, Bain, etc.) and places that have a much stronger rep as far as solution development (Google, Microsoft, etc.). Don't fool yourself, being a Tech Consultant here is nothing more than being a highly paid and respected contractor.

Pros

It's all about the people. The best people on the planet. Smart, energetic, collaborative, honest, service-oriented, diligent, etc. If you're assigned to a tough project you can be confident that the team will pull together to get the job done. If you're selling work, you can be confident the work will get done well. Great friendships are formed at Accenture.

Cons

Career advancement comes slowly. You'll get the increased responsibility long before you get the title and the compensation. It's a "pay your dues" model. Comp for senior people is definitely there and worth striving for. Even if you don't make it to the brass ring, you build great skills and amazing network along the way that will pay big dividends later in life.
