Pros

- the people are nice, although you do not actually work with them since everyone is on their own client - pay is better than some competitors (e.g., deloitte) - still far below tech industry software engineering average - gamified promotion system (positive when the market is good, very negative when the market is poor)

Cons

- no vision for the future - clearly being absorbed by accenture and no one admits to it - leadership dropping like flies (laid off, willingly taking other jobs) - avanade ran through multiple CEOs in the last 2-3 years - lack of promotions and salary bumps for well over 3 years - partially not avande's fault, but no one needs consulting anymore due to the rise of AI. this has simply made this business model not profitable, and has clearly hit company morale, salaries, hiring, and culture. - can be stuck on a project for a LONG time with no real way to get out

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.
