Pros

Good salary and benefits. Work from home while on the bench.

Cons

I was hired as a Senior Business Analyst February 2015. They had no projects whatsoever. They kept me on the bench and searching for roles. Out of nowhere, I get an phone call saying they are terminating my employment. No warning or anything. I ask why? They say it's because they have no demand. So now I quit my stable job and now have no job. Offered severance pay of 1 week.

Pros

There are a lot of pros working for Accenutre. They have great career opportunities, a never ending supply of interesting work, competitive compensation, wonderful benefits, great people, wonderful training programs, a tremendous number of brilliant professionals in their fields ready to help, and great core values.

Cons

This is not an opportunity for those that do not want to work. At Accenture everyone has a load of work to do and often times under very tight customer time lines. It is a challenge that I enjoy but many might find it stressful.
