Pros

None - seriously consider if you'd like to join this company

Cons

No salary adjustments since 2022 for those not on a promotion track. Advancement often depends more on internal politics and connections than on performance or metrics. Favoritism is definitely present and impacts career progression. There’s also been a noticeable increase in quiet offboarding — employees suddenly disappearing without communication or transparency. It’s been happening for a while, but has accelerated in recent months. The company's identity feels increasingly diminished. There’s no longer a dedicated London office — teams now operate out of Accenture’s space. In some regions and functions, the distinction between Avanade and Accenture has effectively disappeared. It’s disheartening to see a company that claims to value its people show signs of doing the opposite. Unfortunately, with leadership turnover being constant, this erosion of culture isn’t entirely surprising.

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.
