Pros

The opportunity to work on large projects, usually using the latest Microsoft Technologies. The training resources available are great. Plus I really feel it is a meticracy. If you work hard and shine relative to your peers you will be recognized. I have been promoted three years in a row and my salary has been very fairly adjusted each time to reflect the new levels I have attained.

Cons

The salary ranges are average, if not a little below for the industry. The bonus plan is non existant for lower level consultants.

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.
