Pros

Provides good training platform for no experience young students who need to start their career.

Cons

You feel like another chargeable/staff-aug/capacity resource. Most of the projects there is no consulting process or a professional approach. There are no tools provided except MS Office. You are on your own when delivering as there are no proven methodologies used. Company owned by Accenture and Microsoft. However there are a lot of politics. The relationship lasts till the sales process. After that there is no support from either companies in solution delivery or relationship management.

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.
