Avanade Consulting

Pros

Good place for college grads to learn a specialty.

Cons

Subsidiary of Accenture - and more and more dependent on the parent to generate revenue, and which also makes it hard for Avanade to get out from under the parent's shadow. Also ~20% owned by Microsoft, but no special favors there. There is some great talent that comes through, but management doesn't do a great job of recognizing talent when the have it. The internal roles, such as within IT and operations are fine, but the consulting roles are too specialized and complicate efficient delivery of solutions.

Pros

Free Certifications Decent Health Benefits (you'll need them)

Cons

Seattle Ops building is dirty, chairs have no back support, and terrible cubicles Ventilation is allergy inducing. A very "It's all who you know." mentality Night shift gets no credit less something goes wrong A rapidly declining work/life balance True hard work is rewarded with more work Time wasting issues are never addressed.

Pros

Avanade is definitely a very collaborative environment with a great office culture (in Chicago at least) if you choose to get involved (would highly recommend). They also offer a lot of great resources in terms of developing new skills.

Cons

If you're coming in as an analyst, your experience with Avanade can depend heavily on your first couple of projects (assuming that you have the opportunity to get on more than one). If you're on a project that you're not thrilled to be on, then you'll find yourself in a tricky situation where if you speak up about it, it might negatively affect your performance reviews, but if you don't speak up, then you might find yourself going down a path that you don't want to be on. This also heavily depends on your relationship with your career adviser and whether or not you feel the freedom to speak up about these issues.
