Pros

Microsoft all around for those who like it. They care for their employees. There are numerous after-hours activities for pursuing your passions, both work-related and hobby-related. Strong team. Competitive salary.

Cons

Limited pool of projects available as often with outsourcing companies. Though it was before a merger into what is now Avanade. Too strong focus on the Microsoft technologies makes the management ignorant about what interesting happens elsewhere.

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.
