Pros

Training opportunities, flexible lateral moves, established policies/systems/processes. Average in terms of people; some are great, some are not, just like anywhere else.

Cons

Salaries not industry standard. Very hard to get promoted. Company goes through an overhaul every number of years (also like anywhere else) that puts everyone on edge - seems unstable. Unique political environment with Microsoft and Accenture as parent companies - has pros and cons.

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.
