Pros

Training, large clients, company is growing, you can work on large complex and challenging projects.

Cons

Company is divided into distinct service lines focused on MS technology applications, and doesnt team across these service lines well. Managment approach is very methodical and Accenture-like, resulting in slow moving approaches to address business needs. As you move up the management ranks, some service lines lack an inclusive senior management team.

Pros

A really nice office with perks and company culture that come from Accenture.

Cons

There is a prioritization with getting certifications and doing a lot of tasks outside of full time client work, just to get promoted. If you are in the bench and it’s a slow season, there is a high risk of getting laid off. You will lose your sense of purpose all for the trendy AI culture. The company thrives on buzz terms and marketing solutions rather than actually solving anything.
