Pros

Partially owned by Microsoft and Accenture (gold plated health plans and access to "Big Projects") Management recognizes that happy and satisfied employees make the difference in delivery for the customers Competitive pay and benefits. Great place to start a career in consulting as the onboarding and training that is provided is priceless. Mature tools for sales and delivery process and methodologies. Flexible work is a thing and something that is real.

Cons

Mostly owned by Accenture. This can be a con for some of the projects that are managed by Accenture (not all) as their culture is that of a Big 5 consulting firm and the "employee first" culture doesn't pervade as much as within Avanade.

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.
