      Pros

      Medical benefits 401k match That’s it

      Cons

      Micromanagement Accenture work-environment Corporation sabotaged higher positions at Austin. All advanced positions are already in Dublin so Accenture influence is everywhere. A lot of favoritism No worklife balance Salaries are negotiable so you guess how much they offer.

      Pros

      Great opportunity to build. Leadership is approachable

      Cons

      US leadership is not strong because they ultimately are subject to Chinese leadership mentality. People are not really cared about and the RTO policy is very draconian.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      1. Great scope for new grad. I’m given the chance to work on feature or even component design at the first few months of work as a new grad 2. Great growth due to previous reason 3. Colleagues are supportive and helpful and knowledgeable

      Cons

      1. Bad WLB: have to work nights with China team and this trend is increasing 2. Colleagues: they are nice but toxic in some way. Works too long and sometimes even on weekends. 3. Managerial philosophy are different. Check out more details on YouTube. Almost all former employees who made a “why I leave” video mentioned about this
