Pros

Avanade is a good place to start your career espcecially if you are an analyst. You can gain alot of technical knowledge working on large projects. Avanade will pay to get you certified as Microsoft developer.

Cons

Expectations are not clearly communicated and are at times contradictory depending on whom you talk to within the company. Consultants are expected to work long hours.

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.
