Pros

Been on great projects with awesome clients and received generous raises and promotions and awesome benefits with paid certifications.

Cons

If you are not on a long term project and enjoy countless short term project jumping do not make long term commitment as in buying a house, this isn't a long term career job as many consulting jobs aren't. Avoid Bench at all cost or you will be laid off eventually. There has been many veteran long term employees who have been laid off in the past year or two and I never seen a company who wouldn't rehire them unlike other firms I worked for. Also more money and promotions you make, you can forget about working on projects that you are a pro at due to level cost, which makes it hard to find desirable project and you will be on bench. My Scheduling is a tool to look for projects and apply, but you will find it pointless. Also Avanade has career advisors who are clueless and don't help in finding projects. They're selfish and only care about themselves.

Pros

Good branding, fair pay, great network into Accenture resources, Avanade maintains its own company culture which makes more friendlier and cordial than Accenture

Cons

Lack of transparency, bureaucratic, heavily matrixed organization that relies on politics and connections versus actual competencies that consultants bring to the table. Heavily relies on overseas talent to maintain low costs when selling agents to client organizations.

Pros

-Gain experience from multiple industries -Decent pay -Good benefits

Cons

-They put workers in "sink or swim" situations very often. You will very likely be on your own with the client most of the time. -While they provide subscriptions to training sites they offer very little themselves so it is very easy to be pretty clueless on your career path -Career growth as a developer is okay at the beginning but at a certain point tech skills are underprioritized in favor for management skills -Depending on which internal org you get into there is a lot of expected travel (weekly). This is fine to do for a year or two but most people get burned out on it after a long while.
