Avanade reviews

At the end of the day it’s Accenture. You work 90% of your time under Accenture. You are sent on projects with no training and a lot of times without knowledge on the product you are going to work with. You only get internal trainings (that are like jokes, for instance 1hr a week for 4 weeks to learn IaC…), little time for self study and get only Microsoft exams vouchers. No work/life balance, as per Accenture tradition, despite all the good projects about this they advertise (forget to have 4 days long working week working 10 hours a day. You only will work 10 hours a day, if you are lucky.). And last but not least the Accenture culture: always spend at least half of your time looking at your back. Expect always a knife in your back as soon as something goes wrong. No one is interested on the “why” a problem pc ours, but only on the “who” is getting screwed for that. Plus, if you work less then 10 hours and you don’t answer phone also out of your business hours (weekend included) you’re not good for them. They only try to avoid these things by words, but when it comes to the facts, nothing is done

Hard work is overlooked. You’re put forward for promotion over things outside your control. For example if you get put on a project that has less responsibilities you get knocked down for not working at a higher level.
