Pros

Great opportunity to build up your resume with the latest and greatest Microsoft technologies. Since Avanade is a child company of Accenture and Microsoft you get chances to work on some extremely well planned projects which will make a measurable difference in a clients day-to-day operations. Avanade provides clear expectations for what they expect from you as employee and provides clear guidance for personal career growth. They provide extensive resources for training and certification and strongly recommend employees utilize them. Even if the start-up like work environment isn't for you, you will leave Avanade with current Microsoft Certifications and the experience you need to take the next step in your career.

Cons

Salaries are slightly lower than other companies in the area with similar job responsibilities.

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.
