Pros

Inclusivity, good starting benefits, everyone here likes to learn. flat management structure. Some lines of work have better work life balance.

Cons

Company is slowly being vortexed into Accenture. You will need to be your own self advocate during promotion. Projects are less available during the colder months. If you find your self on the bench at that time, it will more than likely affect your chargeability which is the main metric for promotion. Low visibility projects are career killers, know what kind work you will be doing before you sign up. Sometimes staying on the bench is a better, but you will need to weigh your options.

Mentors are so important at all stages of one’s career, and I’m happy to read that you found one at the start of your Avanade journey. Creating a culture for growth is one of our key priorities, and so you will continue to see focus here from all levels of the leadership team. I recommend engaging your career adviser to help you brainstorm ways you’d like to grow and project experiences you’d like to have in the coming months. If you have any other feedback, please reach out at amy.wright@avanade.com!

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.
