Pros

You can bring your authentic self to work; Strength of the Accenture & Microsoft brands behind us but smaller, growing and more entrepreneurial in a global environment; importance of culture, diversity, & inclusion in all that we do; impressed with how they have handled/managed the craziness of the last year with Covid, an election year with extreme political and social divisiveness, and all that goes along with that mentally, physically and emotionally.

Cons

You have to change to stay relevant in this ever changing world, but sometimes too much change all at once can be overwhelming so just ask that when something new is being recommended or being rolled out, that will take even a little bit of time and energy, to understand all changes or upcoming roll outs and ask oneself how critical this item is and if it can wait so people aren't spread so thin doing their day jobs while trying to navigate a number of other things that keep popping up

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.
