High producing culture with many smart people. Market muscle of Accenture ans Microsoft. Constant learning environment for most roles.

Often more tactical than strategic. Too much busy work. Leadership pronouncements and investments are not fully aligned. Lacks significant, inspiring purpose.

Pros

The projects are really large so you'll get great experience. The benefits are good. The people are, for the most part, really nice at the lower level.

Cons

Always restructuring. You don't actually work for Avanade you work for Accenture under the name of Avanade. Accenture is always trying to absorb or downsize Avanade and even the execs don't have real power there. Plus all work and decisions are also controlled by Microsoft, so if they're doing extremely well then Avanade does and then Accenture fights for their share of the money in some shady way.
