Pros

Paid to learn .Net and meet new and interesting people who are dedicated to their jobs and inspire others to be the same way. Clear goal oriented promotion system.

Cons

Learning to work a position that is not in my job description, meaning the position was a mix of business analyst and developer and if too heavily business analyst oriented, it creates a feeling of deception to the client as if I am supposed to be someone I am not. While there is work locally that teams can contribute to, and learn more than book experience, they would keep people on then bench instead. The cost of putting a developer onto the team may be out their hands in a travel situation but for local instances I don't understand it.

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.
