Avanade reviews

The company just doesn't care about IT quality, which is sad given that it's an IT consulting firm. The consultants are bodies that can be sold. The managers are those who tackle the communication problems and keep the client (not happy, just keep it). It's so rare to be on a project (or a client) with requirements that resemble innovation, modern standard, or new solutions, that everyone has been convinced that this kind of IT jobs are a joke, and supporting (or rather: suffering the bad decisions taken by) the client is an honorable work. But this is just to hide the truth: the company just wants money. There have been many times where "money today" was chosen over "quality/improvement/publicity" tomorrow. Their presence on social media and as an international firm shines so much that it blinds you and you're not able to see, from outside, the bad in it. The primary method that they use to overcome competent employees leaving, is keeping up their image so that other competent professional get caught by the trap and come aboard. - Low quality work - Frequent disorganization, too many "opinions" - Bad planning - Illusion of target - Low skills overall Note: if you're lucky (1 / 200), you can have a pleasant time and nice job duties, for a variable period of time.

90% of the project are managed by Accenture, employees are like subcontractors. it 's very difficult to have relations with management. No relations with people who can decide. Low work/life balance, a lot of unpaid extra time. Low salary, too many hierarchies no career path defined.
