That's fairly typical for large staffing companies. The problem with Accenture was how aggressively they went after other consultants. You really needed to watch your back because they actively tried to make the rest of us look bad. I saw it a couple of times and had friends who experienced the same thing. Its best to make sure every damn communication is documented with them in the mix.

It surely wasn't everyone, but enough of their onsite people pulled stunts that I am very wary of them.

I agree. Keeping a meticulous paper trail is the only defense against getting an incompetent team installed on your project.
