Pros

Name recognition in the marketplace.

Training facility at the Q Center in St. Charles, IL. You'll be able to meet other resources from around the world.

Cons

Annual review for promotion and compensation is unfair and biased. You'll only progress depending on which people your representative knows.

HR broadcasts that they have your best interests, but are completely ineffectual.

Forced to take employee surveys that make the company appear to be a "great place to work".

You'll be used up and thrown out.

Accenture boasts that you'll have your own career path that's up to you. Really, you'll be forced on a long-term role that doesn't use your skills or provide any opportunity for future growth. When contracts end, you'll be useless.

Advice to Management

Stepping on people to further yourself along isn't the way to live.
