Going downhill fast

Pros

It was great several years ago before Accenture essentially took it over. The pros then were great culture, ability to work on remote projects from home (limited to no travel), good benefits, great project work, delivering great value to customers through development expertise and feeling like Avanade was its own company with separate values and culture. Not being Accenture was what made it great.

Cons

Below average pay and a slow downward spiral once the Accenture integration began. By the time I left, it seemed like everything was being developed offshore, quality didn't matter anymore and everything was about profit. You basically were forced into travelling full time or you wouldn't get on a project and risked sitting on the bench too long and getting laid off.

Avanade was established as a joint venture between industry giants, Microsoft and Accenture; both of whom we continue to partner heavily with as we realize our vision to be the leading digital innovator. I'm disappointed that your experience did not align with our vision, both in terms of bleeding edge solutions and a unique, people-focused culture. If you're open to discussing your experience in more detail, please email me directly at eric.miquelon@avanade.com

Pros

- Great technology available to employees - Focus on training is reinforced - Doesn't feel too big, particularly for a global company

Cons

- Isn't differentiated enough from Accenture - Change Management isn't a priority as a go-to-market solution to pair with technology implementations

Cons

Long hours If you get on an Accenture project it depends on the manager you get - can be fine or can be hell
