Pros

This is an IT consulting company and projects are various. Projects are long, short, big and small so everybody will find something for yourself. Of course projects differs from quality perspective. Project might be crappy for you but awesome for someone else....and it can happend in every company. What I really enjoy for all those years in this company is that: if you really, really want to achieve, change something, it is possible, of course it needs some time but there are people that will help you. I know people who were QA and become a DevOps or developer, office assistant who become QA and not only manual but great technical engineer fully working on test automation (Java/C#/JS). If you are looking for a place with great people and mentors, place to grow, be able to make a difference (sometimes slower or faster) than Avanade is the place.

Cons

Maybe I am too optimistic but I see more pros than cons, it is a subjective feeling. Definitiely there are some projects that could be more interesting or be managed better but it is always up to you what 'positive' are you getting out of even crappiest project.

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.
