Pros

I joined Avanade right out of college. Avanade truly ignited my career in .net development mainly because of the training I received while on bench time. Good benefits, paid cellphone, good training for .net technologies, pay for certifications, avanade branded umbrella...

Cons

-You have no say on which project you get staffed on. Some projects are very poorly managed. You either have nothing to do or have unrealistic demands in short deadlines. -not many interesting projects in So Cal. - Low salary.

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.
