Pros

Microsoft Platform based technology and client transformations together with Accenture.

Cons

Frequent changes, a lack of clear direction, a toxic culture in Southeast Asia, constant layoffs, and the absence of autonomy have eroded any sense of belonging within the company. Leadership appears disconnected from on-the-ground challenges and often chooses to ignore or avoid open and transparent discussions about the organization’s real issues.

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.
