Pros

Outstanding training and mentoring programs at all levels, diversity of experience both in terms of career skills and industries, travel opportunities both domestically and internationally.

Cons

Can be bureaucratic. Market needs to want to purchase your skills in order to succeed and be promoted. Promotions are highly competitive.

Pros

challenging, enjoyable work with smart people. The Strategy practice had some of the best career opportunities available. Extensive mentoring opportunities and detailed work expectations/performance reviews were just some of the benefits in career coaching. Talent was recognized and rewared appropriately. Extensive training opportunities and knowledge management resources. Dedicated research assistance was instrumental in producing presentations on the fly.

Cons

constant travel on the consulting side; pressure to sell follow-on work. Accenture lifestyle not really geared to married couples with children. The need to be on-site for clients meant many, many nights away from home. Monday through Thursday would be at client work place; Fridays would be in Accenture home office- hoteling concept took some getting used to. best for young, single workers.

Pros

Accenture has a great network. You can contact colleagues from around the globe for assistance. There is very much we’re all in this together mentality.

Cons

The Amsterdam office is very much an all boys club. This is changing with the promotion of a woman as CM and more women at Sr. Management. There is also a lack of diversity especially among SI&T and absolutely no clue on how to solve the problem. A lot of people who are not ready to be Sr. Managers are being promoted. Most of which would not past the consultant level at other offices. Most of these guys are mostly clueless, which gives bad moral to others.
