Pros

Avanade has 2 huge parents and has some of the smartest technologists working to solve global clients needs.

Cons

Travel at Avanade is a huge part of the role. Client facing Consultants can be away from home for up to 80% of the time and whilst on different projects can be away from home Monday - Thursday. Our Consultants have meals, travel and accommodation paid for, 2 devices and their own credit card to help manage additional expenses. For many consultants travel isn’t a negative aspect of the role, It’s a major positive and gives every employee the ability for change, progression and technical challenge on a constant basis. For those not looking to travel or have a strong work/life balance perhaps consulting as a line of work isn't the best option. However, if you are looking for a role with variety and change maybe consultancy work is for you.

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.
