Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback. Our annual engagement survey results show that we are moving the needle on improving employee experiences, but it doesn’t sound like you’re had the excellent experience we strive to provide each person who chooses to build their career at Avanade. I’d love to learn more to make sure that what we are committed to providing – which is an environment where our people feel inspired, confident and cared for – is reaching each and every person who works here. Please feel free to reach out to me directly at amy.wright@avanade.com.

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.
