Pros

Remote work, worked with some fantastic peers, number of ways to uptrain/expand your skillset

Cons

The constant reorgs within the past year or so have been a real morale sucker. With the shift headlong into AI and projects scoped around that, the shunting of core competencies like cloud migrations or desktop modernization onto the back burner has really created an atmosphere of being devalued, for those who are in those fields. Also, if the project lead doesn’t like you or feels a certain way about you, forget it — you’ll be put out to pasture real quick. Even if you have the skills, even if you did your work, even if the client is impressed with your experience and expertise, none of it matters — just pack your bags…

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.
