Varied work with large and mid-sized clients, although often there's too much focus on profit rather than quality. - Group Manager Avanade Employee Review

Pros

Some great people to work with, a good chance to learn Microsoft technologies, and great opportunities to work with clients across all industry sectors.

Cons

In the last 5 years technologists have taken a back seat to salesmen, project work has become increasingly risk averse, and the company has become more a subsidiary of Accenture than a separate company with its own culture.

Pros

A really nice office with perks and company culture that come from Accenture.

Cons

There is a prioritization with getting certifications and doing a lot of tasks outside of full time client work, just to get promoted. If you are in the bench and it’s a slow season, there is a high risk of getting laid off. You will lose your sense of purpose all for the trendy AI culture. The company thrives on buzz terms and marketing solutions rather than actually solving anything.
