Pros

Microsoft Gold Partner status. Bleeding edge of innovation and technical developments in a multitude of industries.

Cons

Travel and 'consultant life' is a game for the young and single crowd. Over-emphasis on certification may trump actual skill development or experience.

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.
