Pros

good employer, good projects in microsoft area across service lines, sister company of accenture so standards are pretty good, as a consultant you are given opportunities to certify yourself and grow, good benefits package

Cons

Hierarchical company, being on bench is considered to be a crime, employees are under pressure mostly, work sometimes not recognized as it should be

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.
