Vantaggi
This company has lots of real estate (pun intended) to allow a self motivated person to learn, grow and move around the organization. I would whole heartedly recommend Accenture for a new college graduate, technical person in developing country or technology / business professional whom has stalled in their career and needs some fresh wind/challenge. Overall Accenture is a great technology company that will provide a spring board and wealth of professional contacts as you grow, rebuild and reposition your career.
Svantaggi
Accenture is investing heavily in low cost and developing IT areas for call centers and backend support. The financial incentives for experienced technology workers in the US are not what they used to be. Albeit there's still opportunity but its harder to get at. I guess this could be an indicator to the saturatng need for IT services and outsourcing in the American markets and Accenture's already large size.
