Pros

Around average pay. (Only slightly below average) A major company looks good on a resume.

Cons

Will threaten termination to "motivate" employees. We were asked to work between 5-10 hours off the clock a week for the first 3months. This was only stopped when multiple employees went over Avanade's head contacting Microsoft making them aware of the illegal activity Avanade was involved in while working on their project. Avanade lies and exaggerates to keep employees around and then in a heart beat screws over a large number of employees to send jobs overseas after promising job stability once project contract was renewed. Up until a week before mass roll offs all agents were told our contracts were about to be extended.

One of our core values at Avanade is acting with integrity and respect – which I take very seriously. We have clear policies around tracking and recording time, as well as a process for investigating employee complaints reported through leadership, HR or our Ethics & Compliance hotline.

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.
