Pros

There is a serious desire to update and change the business strategy. People here are smart and earnest. There are a lot of folks who have been here since the very beginning, mixed with newbies, which leads to interesting conversations. The proclaimed focus on customer seems to be sincere.

Cons

Bit of an identity crisis: is this an Accenture shop? A Microsoft shop? How do we build our own culture and identify? Decision-making has to run up the chain, sometimes unnecessarily complicating that process.

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.
