Pros

Smart, talented, highly skilled teams to work with

Cons

Death by legal processes. 40-50% of your time is spent doing business administration work to make sure you are policy compliant in order to sell a solution to a customer. There are reviews for determining if you can pursue a potential client all they way through the process of executing a contract.

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.
