Pros

Avanade is a Microsoft shop and pushes all of it's employees to become certified in Microsoft Products and Services. Good place to get certified.

Cons

Most projects are subcontracted out from Accenture and Avanade has very little direct business. This means most projects are managed by Accenture and there is little career growth towards managing projects.

Pros

- You can gain great consulting experience. Avanade has many top Fortune 500 customers from which you can gain valuable customer facing consulting experience if you are fortunate enough to be staffed on the right projects. - Benefits package is above average. Pay is average. - Access to cutting edge Microsoft technology

Cons

- Rampant Cronyism - Top Heavy organization structure where most Directors are over paid and under deliver - Frequent layoffs that often result in the best people getting cut. - No career model. Most people stay until they get laid off or find a better salary elsewhere. - Rapid growth offshore has turned company more into a body shop than a respected consultancy
