Pros

Gives you beginner drawing interpretation experience.

Cons

You will be promised full-time employment after 6 months. That will not be the case; you will be a contractor for longer than a year.

As a contractor, you are treated like a second-class citizen. You will not be allowed to participate in any Accenture-related events and you are excluded in most cases.

Management micromanages you and expects you to account for every second you are there. Honest workers do not get recognized; only full-time employees do. If you do good work, you are rewarded with more work.

This place breeds laziness. There is also no guidance or leadership here. The teams are very unorganized and have no sense of direction.

The terms of the contract will change at any time, and you will be expected to adapt with no raise or full-time employment.

For the first 6 months, you will not do anything except sit there and stare at your computer screen. You will have a sorry excuse for training, but you'll only learn once you get actually started, which is 6 months after you start.

Expect to feel like the work you are doing is meaningless. They like to preach about work/life balance and their core beliefs, but this company does not follow that.

Advice to Management

Stop making fake promises.

Pay your engineers more than $16.41.

Include your whole team in team events, including contractors.

Inspire your team instead of being doom and gloom every time you address them.
