Pros

Smart people Connection to Accenture Great Microsoft platform understanding

Cons

Poor capability to deliver on platform vision locally High overhead with little value add coming from them Business model is dead and they don't see it, don't see the need to talk about market realities Legalistic concept of relationship No desire to invest in partnership with customer No concept of partnership with partners on common terms/force the 'Avanade' way. Pass all risk to customers and don't take responsibility for their own failures

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.
