Pluspunten
The excitement of travel (at first) including all the benefits and perks that come with travel was great. Accenture consistently hires some of the most driven, intelligent people. Working beside them provides healthy and competitive challenge. It is always nice to work for a company that carries some prestige. Despite the competition from smaller boutique consulting firms, Accenture continues to prove that it is the best at consulting and it makes employees proud to be included in that claim. It is also a good place to meet many young, attractive professionals with similar interests and background for the purposes of dating.
Minpunten
Accenture has never figured out how to competitively compensate its employees. Any of its analysts, consultants and managers could leave the firm at any time and find a job with a competing firm or former client and be virtually guaranteed to receive a higher salary under less stressful working conditions. Accenture was never good at honoring the travel requests of employees. The employees that really wanted to travel were usually staffed locally. Those who did not want to travel were staffed on extended projects away from home. The firm became significantly less fun back when it went public in 2001.
