Pros

Great place to keep current on the latest MS technology. Super training programs. Good people. Very good place to work if you are in a stage of your life where you are looking for job variety and travel. If you are one of the rare folks who have both strong technical and good people (consulting) skills, then Avanade could be a good choice for you.

Cons

Overly bureaucratic. Often top down management decisions didn't seem to make sense at the customer level. Because of the structure of the organization, it was easier to get noticed (from a career perspective) if you lived near one of the major development centers.

Pros

A really nice office with perks and company culture that come from Accenture.

Cons

There is a prioritization with getting certifications and doing a lot of tasks outside of full time client work, just to get promoted. If you are in the bench and it’s a slow season, there is a high risk of getting laid off. You will lose your sense of purpose all for the trendy AI culture. The company thrives on buzz terms and marketing solutions rather than actually solving anything.
