Highly unmeritocratic and political, biased company thriving on brand gimmicks

Typical day is spent at networking with MD's (partner in other consulting firms). People try and fish for a project where they can put in a chargeable WBS on timesheet without having to work much in reality

Pros

Fashion parade, stylish office, barista coffee machine at TO office

Cons

Incapable people yelling on capable team members to do work properly

Solid place for tech consulting

Be vocal and take initiative in where you want to point your career - It's a large organization, and it's easy to get sucked into projects that don't really contribute to your career growth. Network and be proactive on top of your day to day responsibilities.

Not a transparent company working as consultant

Lots of hidden agenda's making it a frustrating way to keep up with responsibilities. Great place for pay and benefits, if your in USA. Benefits cut in Cda.

Great Company!

Love the people, love the culture. Tough and challenging work. Great attitude. Bi-weekly mentorship with managers. They stress a lot with compliance and ethics and that's always great in a company.

Good Place to learn skills

Accenture is a global company. Good work culture that endorses work/life balance. Good benefits structure & vacation. Management is willing to help in upgrading skills or moving you into a better fit.

Big corporation means drone working

Corporate culture is deceiving. From the outside it looks productive, organised, inclusive and prestigious. However you are just a number. Culture is toxic, demeaning and repressive. Its who you know and how you can curry favour rather than skill, personal input and ideas. Add a powerful Crown Corp (BC Hydro) and Provincial government backed Union and you have a recipe for ineffectiveness, inefficiency and demoralizing culture.

Pros

healthcare

Cons

modern slavery

Accenture for BC Hydro

Never apply to this company- they work for BC hydro and all they do is hire and use you for the time your probation is done and fire you so that they don't don't have to pay more for your benefits to kick in and they again hire fresh new batch! The job is very stressful and they make you run like hounds in a race. They lost the contract with BC hydro- serves them right!

Pros

location

Cons

Everything else is bad!

A great place to work

One of the best employers I've had, enjoyed working here. Great team, good career prospects. good remuneration and work life balance. This place gave me great opportunities to learn and grow. As a consultant I got to travel to new clients, learn new technologies and was given an opportunity to prove myself. My best 12 years of my career.

Pros

Wealth of learning assets

Cons

Long commutes to client sites

Worst place I have ever worked - Good thing BC Hydro did not renew their contract with them!!!

Nothing you do will be good enough. You will be a number not a person. If you want to value your work and yourself, do yourself a favour and don't work here. All they want is a machine who has no life other than to come to work and answer every call you can but do not take long. Make sure you code. Make sure you smile when the customer treats you like garbage. Make sure you don't need a drink or a stretch or a bathroom break too often. Make sure you have used every single word they tell you to in the order they want or you won't pass quality. Don't like it? Too bad. They'll just hire a bunch more people until they get the monkeys they want. Oh, and the "great new building" they have in downtown Vancouver.. it's a converted parking garage with no light and horrible ventilation. The dust and smells in there are horrendous.. but don't complain!!! You will have a target on your back. They don't like when someone has a brain of their own, or questions when something isn't right or calls them on how needlessly stressful the job is, or is treated like garbage. Sad that the "hot chocholate" they say they offer is the best part of working there. I sure hope BC Hydro knows who they outsourced their business to.

Pros

Decent money-but geez don't ever take a day off!

Cons

Everything. The turnover is the highest I've ever seen..for good reason.

stay away

great co-works however the policies and such not so cool. you can also get stuck with evening and weekend hours on their shift bidding system while working in the converted parking garage. so if you like windows and natural light, this is not the place
