      Nice people and management, but no work and looming threat of redundancy

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - People and management are nice - Good worklife balance - Working perks are nice

      Cons

      - Not much work and at times you can see yourself with no actual project work for months on end. This leads you to just wait around, do odd jobs and try to progress your career with not much assistance. - We've seen three rounds of redundancies this year alone, with over 60% of our team sized down. People not on projects are consistently in a state of fear and anxiety, wondering if there going to be an HR meeting put into their calendars this week. - People who are made redundant are not given a way to even say goodbye and are expected to leave in sometimes two days' notice. People are then left wondering on who's still around and who's been let go. - Lastly, HR has a reputation of being very unempathetic and rude

      Excellent Consulting Firm to work for

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good Pay, Fascinating Innovative Work, Many Colleagues are Experts in Microsoft Technologies, WFH, Employee Stock Purchase Plan, 401K Match, Good Vacation Accrual, Company Virtual University/Online Learning & Certifications, Diversity, Ability to shift to working in different technology areas, Microsoft Dev License so you can spin up your own lab, depending on client-hours are often flexible.

      Cons

      Long hours. Management is hands off, so must be able to work very independently and not be shy about reaching out to others. Seeking billable engagements must be self-driven. Internal consulting practice-building activities are in addition to full-time work for clients. Minimal job security.

      Unfortunately Felt Like It Was Past It's Best

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      I worked for a company that was acquired by Avanade and had a number of incredibly knowledgeable colleagues that came over as part of the acquisition. The company has a Good Benefits Package including Pension, Private Health for you as an individual, Utilisation Bonus, Company Profit Share bonus and one off annual Extended Bonus of 1.9k for you to spend on what you like. You get to work on big Enterprise Level projects. There was a good calibre of graduates being hired through the Graduate scheme. The Avanade rewards scheme allows you to award reward points to colleagues you believe have done a good job which can be used on a website to purchase small gifts and consumables.

      Cons

      Lots of the knowledgeable colleagues carried over from our previously acquired company left and went elsewhere. Poor Sales to Services communication leading to ridiculously long hours to deliver projects. Micro Managing style of management by more senior leaders in some projects made daily life difficult. IP products that where being developed in parallel with normal project delivery work and expected to be utilized on multiple other projects did not have a product budget and as a result were seriously under invested in. Too much red tape and unnecessary meetings that were not connected with Client Delivery. Well skilled graduates left languishing on the bench for several months. Saw too many promotions that were not really deserved due to being a social butterfly, a "face fits" agenda or because the promotion fitted with the wider company agenda. In the CEO briefings - apart from championing Diversity and Inclusion (not that there is anything wrong with that) I struggled to understand what the company stood for or what it's strategic direction was. Accenture driven projects in particular were very poorly managed.
