Pros

Some really smart people in the development teams. Clean restrooms. Great technology in conference rooms.

Cons

The company mis-leads its customers, they talk one thing and deliver something else, sweeping real issues under the carpet. Management are all 'in the boys club' and look after themselves. Personal agendas are rife within management in the IT area - they'll stop at nothing to better their own careers, and I mean nothing - dishonesty seems to be a quality they aspire to. Manipulation is a daily goal. I've never worked for an organization that shows such a lack of respect to its staff. High turnover rate - not surprising, the smart people leave. Forget it if you are a woman looking to get into a senior management position within a technology area - it's boys only. I've witnessed senior management make racist , homophobic and sexist comments. Avoid this place.

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.
