Yeah that's why I said it's not bad for a job out of University, but don't stay there for too long. It's not a company that you'd want to spend most of your career with.

It's a known fact within the industry that Accenture hires lot of new grads to do grunt work. They work for a few years then they jump ship to other companies. Not by force, rather by choice. This is not from personal experience, but from friends that I know who have worked there.
