Pros

Avanade used to have some of the best employee satisfaction focus in the tech business, there are still pockets and teams that retain that culture

Cons

Accenture is taking over as a parent company. They've devolved Avanade from an independent company to a glorified department of Accenture. As a company with 300,000 employees, Accenture doesn't care if you're happy, just if you work. That's starting to bleed into the Avanade culture through the upper management that has been brought in directly from Accenture (C-level, and VP/Directors)

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.
