      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

      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.
