Pros

- The company is a great place for a young consultant to start after their internship. They can connect with clients and learn new technologies fast - The benefits are good

Cons

- The company is bought by Accenture. And for many internal processes their approval is needed - Every decision ends up in a long line of emails that usually lead nowhere - Most of the entry level roles are extremely streamlined - Internal AI Helpdesk chat bots - You might get a lay off out of nowhere because your position is being outsourced or the entire office shuts down

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.
