Pros
It takes working for the insane to recognize and appreciate sanity. Post-Accenture I make 30% more in salary, have a life with my family where I don’t feel tortured/maligned for wanting my weekends off to spend time with them, and I have time to pursue an MS that fits my goals and off-work projects. The Pros of Accenture is learning how to hate people who have been given positions due to nepotism and dogmatic assimilation to that status quo. I respect the doers, the slaves, and the serfs that are forced to work for a company like this. I feel for the workers, and condemn companies like Accenture that exploits their work ethic and gas lights them into not accepting living wages, pensions, or equitable opportunities for the average employee. Accenture is the future and it represents hell for anyone who doesn’t have a mommy or daddy as a senior manager in corporate America. To quote a song that mattered once, “I ain’t no fortunate son”
Cons
It’s a great place to work - sort of like if you enjoy rats eating at your toes for years on end.
