Been here 5 years and missed out before Covid. Surprised in a good way with Q, content was blah, meeting people was awesome, Accenture is really a small world.

Meeting people was great but the hours were awful. You can’t work on any project work and are in “class” from like 8-6 every day. Glad I did it but not in any hurry to go back
