Pros

Avanade provides a supportive environment for learning, developing and networking among some of the most talented and creative professionals in the IT Consulting industry. A wide variety of learning programs, peer training and on-the-job learnings provide Avanade employees the opportunity to expand their knowledge base and further contribute to the organizational growth. The emphasis on developing a career path and fine tuning leadership/management capabilities assures that employees are given the tools to rise to the next level, provided they work hard, contribute regularly and display the aptitude to take the Avanade vision personally as part of their career path and goal to grow with the company.

Cons

Due to the large quantity of work and dedication involved to projects from leadership down to field level support, the work/life balance can become an issue if not continually checked and regulated.

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.
