Pros
Accenture is consistently ranked as one of the best places to work. It made the Forbes list this year, and has been on the "Working Mother" list for several years. The c-suite seems to know what they are doing.
Cons
Outside of the C-suite, a lot of the executives (formally known as partners) are still stuck in the old Andersen Consulting partnership mentality. They are too willing to sacrifice quality in the name of cost. The outsourcing practice, in particular, is obsessed with offshoring, even when that approach has shown repeatedly that quality suffers. When done well, it's fantastic, but when done on the cheap, it's a recipe for disaster.
