Pros

Remote working. Reasonable pay. Good benefits.

Cons

The marketing organization spends lots of time promoting what a great place Avanade is to work. The reality is turnover is 20% -30%. You'll get stuck on an Accenture project and be forgotten. If you are on the bench too long, well its consulting so you are fired. Very political top down organization. Lots of the Glassdoor reviews are BS and from Marketing. No CEO has a 96% approval rating. That's just not believable.

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.
