Is it worth joining Accenture Strategy? In the long-term with economic, tech and sustainability trends, they have a case to become a strong player in my opinion. This is for UK or US.

They do really well when it comes to tech strategy, but struggle to compete with MBB and T2 firms. (I think part of this is probably branding.) You also won’t get equivalent pay to MBB and T2, so perhaps the talent may be a bit less, however I think the WLB is better, so there is a trade-off. If the pay is good enough for you, and you like tech strategy, then I’d say it’s a good move. Tbh, all B4, MBB, and T2 firms (plus ACN) are good moves in my mind. Strong brands, good pay, interesting work, good benefits, learning and promotion opportunities, and solid exit opps.

I spoke to someone at Accenture Strategy and they said they moved Tech Strategy and Advisory out of ACN Strategy and into Management consulting now. Why are their branding not as strong?
