Pros

Great training and on-boarding process for new employees. Excellent senior management team who are willing to take the time to get to know you as a person and help develop your career. Limited travel as they try to find work close to home. Benefits are great. Overall the best job I have ever had.

Cons

It does take time to learn the Avanade way. It takes about 4-6 months to really get going in your new position. Accenture (the parent company) is not always as friendly as one would think so you have to develop those relationships one person at a time.

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.
