Pros

1. The internal and external training opportunities are great. We are second to only one other company in this area. 2. Smart people and things get done. There's not a lot of red tape. 3. People are empowered and communication is good. 4. We've been named by consulting magazine a best company to work for

Cons

1. The Work/Life balance could be a lot better here. A minimum of 55 hours/week is expected of us and most put in much more than that. 2. Compensation could be better 3. The way we are rated against each other to determine advancement 4. Our attrition numbers are down but it could still get a lot better.

Pros

A really nice office with perks and company culture that come from Accenture.

Cons

There is a prioritization with getting certifications and doing a lot of tasks outside of full time client work, just to get promoted. If you are in the bench and it’s a slow season, there is a high risk of getting laid off. You will lose your sense of purpose all for the trendy AI culture. The company thrives on buzz terms and marketing solutions rather than actually solving anything.
