Pros

There are some really talented committed people working at Accenture who will do what it takes to help others whether they are clients, fellow employees, prospective clients, or people and organizations in their communities.

Cons

Unfortunately, there seems to be a balance between the talented committed people working here and the not so talented (but bright) self-centered, self-promoting individuals who are looking out only for themselves and their success. This holds true for most consulting organizations (I've been with three of the big ones so I've got some experience here). The trouble is you usually can't tell the difference between good and evil consultants until they have done damage - usually to you.

Pros

Great benefits and vacation time. Also there are plenty of events outside of work such as happy hours. There are lots of opportunities at the company if you work hard and show your abilities. Also there are opportunities to travel around the country and even internationally if you want.

Cons

Individual experiences differ from project to project. Some managers are better than others. Some will look after you while others will try to take advantage of hard working individuals. You are not always rewarded for your hard work. If you plan to start with the company be sure to start in the fall, if you start in the winter you will miss the promotion cycle. Promotions in the consulting workforce are based on time with the company. I missed a promotion because I was 1 month short of the requirement even though my rating ranked in the top 10%.

Pros

Great network, collaborative, bright people, can-do attitude, wide range of opportunities to go into areas of interests to particular individuals

Cons

lacklustre senior management spending insufficient time meeting clients and pushing innovative concepts through to sales. Company continues to lose talented people mostly as a result of limited promotion opportunities which in many cases is a result of a bottleneck created by old "partners" who year after year fail to find success in growing the business but somehow manage to stick around through judicious management of their performance process.
