While we always want to do the best we can for our clients, sometimes the client behaviors/actions are not acceptable and leadership needs to support the team vs. the client in the cases.

Thanks for sharing your feedback. As a consulting company our employee’s experience is strongly tied to the experience they have working with our clients – and we recognize that can have both positive and negative effects. We are working hard to ensure your experience working at Avanade is exceptional – regardless of where or who you are working with. I’d like to discuss how we can improve this situation going forward. You can reach me directly at: adam.wengert@avanade.com
Company really cares for their employees, development, and culture
Recognition for good work
Cons
Consulting in general is not what it used to be
Accenture big brother is quite bureaucratic and obnoxious managing 'profiles'
CEO is in London but HQ is Seattle
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.
