My role as an analyst is to analyse data and system requirements of the client. My day-to-day responsibilities depend on the phase of the project I am on but will require analysis, reporting, and organisation.

Pros and cons of working at Accenture Australia and New Zealand

Pros

  • The diversity in projects and the opportunity to get involved wherever interests you. You really can drive your own career and there's not much red tape.

  • Training and learning are really important at Accenture which I really like.

  • Inclusive and work-life balance.

  • Open office space makes meeting coworkers and collaborating with peers easy.

  • Plenty of free drinks/dinners are available throughout the year and ubers/meal credits are provided depending on the nature of the project.

Cons

    • Having to apply for projects - it was quite demoralizing to be constantly rejected for projects when it's your first graduate job.

    • There is no clarity around the promotion process and there has been a lack of promotions in recent times.

    • My initial project was not in the industry that I wanted to work in but quickly realised I could incorporate sustainability into all industries.

    • Pay is standard among similar firms. Graduate salaries have barely changed in the last 5-10 years.

    • Performance and promotion reviews do not involve a direct conversation with the employee/reviewee.
