Pros

Excellent Benefits Diversity hiring focus Opportunities for training

Cons

They're an "Employee first company" but the reality is that profits matter most and budgets are the bottom line. There have been SO MANY LAYOFFS which translates to small or one person teams which means working 80+ hours a week. It's a very stressful environment.

Pros

Very ethical, inclusive, lives by their values, and growth mindset organization. They truly care about their people. When you start, they assign a buddy to help you get started. And throughout your tenure you have a career advisor that regularly checks up on you. They encourage having good work-life balance (gives allowance for buying gadgets, books, gym memberships, etc) and having healthy lifestyle (free app and health tracker device). They also promote continuously building your skills and provide free certifications (primarily Microsoft, but can be other technology / professional certifications).

Cons

Expectations are always high. Always aim to be your best and continuously learn and build your skills. Also your clients could be anywhere in the US or even in other countries. Before Covid, there was lots of traveling. But post covid, there is more flexibility where you could be remote, hybrid, or onsite (i.e. travel), but it still depends on the client. You might think it is easy to choose the opportunity and workstyle you want. But the reality is you have to go with the first opportunity that goes your way as you can't risk staying on the bench for too long or you'll end up with a poor performance evaluation and worse get laid-off.

Pros

access to Microsoft Technologies, access to unique training, is an org that believes in diversity, showed progressive attitude by elevating women to all sorts of roles as well as ack LGTBQ within the workplace.

Cons

jointly owned by Accenture and despite Avanade having its own leadership - it really bent to Accenture's whims, has a hybrid consulting model that usually resulted in consultants providing staff support vs Avanade-lead project engagement, consultants competing with other consultants for roles (unbeknownst to them) - especially offshore consultants that traditionally cost customers less $/hr. consultants who travel are preferred over consultants that do not.
