Pros

smart and interesting people, good benefits, leading in technology

Cons

Avanade promotes work-life balance, however, your workload is so full it's difficult to get the job done in a 60 hour week! Base pay is 20% less tan market-Difficult to get promoted even with excellent reviews! Deep process to everything, lots of emails coming your way from multiple departments, above average meetings which can kill progress if you don't manage

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.
