Pros

Pros

Before my arrival, I've heard the worst things possible from ex-employees and people who never worked here. A lot of great things too but I was not capable of identifying if it was a good company to work for or not. You know what? Consultancy companies are, in general, the worst place to look for work-life balance and the best to learn, make money, and grow. Avanade is a consultancy company but it's impressive how it is well served with benefits and culture. If I have to choose a consultancy company to work at, I think here we have a great reality (of course, if compared with other consultancy companies I worked at) Company Car, a lot of other types of bonuses, discounts on some stores... They even give the possibility to buy Accenture Shares at 15% off. It's a well-structured company with GREAT experts. I mean, "la crème de la crème". Microsoft MVP, well-certified and updated people... There's a lot of room for learning

Cons

The greatest part of the work comes from Accenture. They usually don't know what they are doing or the technologies involved in the project. I really can't understand why companies decide to spend a lot more money with them (and they then call our experts) instead of coming directly to us. We have great business analysts who are experts in various technologies and ACN people usually can even say what's doable and what is not. It usually is a big problem when the client arrives with a lot of high expectations Then... it's a consultancy company. Don't expect to have the greatest work-life balance. I don't have anything to complain about it by now but by lucky. Still, a lot of colleagues had to work late or all night long sometimes, even during Christmas or other holidays... But, again, I challenge anyone to name a consultancy company where this is not a reality from time to time. It depends on the project you are in. If you are one of the lucky ones, then enjoy your time.
