Pros
  • Fantastic opportunities to work on projects with world-leading companies.
  • Good benefits for a company of its size, including a gym subsidy, private healthcare, a decent pension plan, and a sizeable individual training budget.
  • Bi-annual opportunities for promotion (although within the business, it's commonly seen as only one, due to mid-year budget restrictions).
Cons

Information is delivered very impersonally and can appear very blunt at times, making you feel more like a number than a human employee.

Accenture has an incredible talent for making standard emails sound stressful, even though they like to preach about employee mental health.

Opted out of the government furlough scheme and decided to cut people from the company months later into the pandemic – not very employee-friendly, in my opinion.

Advice to Management

Stop citing your catchphrase of 'Truly Human' and start acting human, truly.
