Pros

Prime Seattle office location, collaborative work environment with talented colleagues, and decent compensation if you're a long-timer.

Cons

As noted by others, long-term projects offer a degree of security. However, for those involved in shorter engagements, maintaining employment is a constant challenge. Navigating the often confusing and antiquated job search database is a frustrating task to secure new assignments. Responses from the job posters are scant, at best. Upon project completion, a countdown begins. While the exact timeframe can vary, failure to secure a new role within a specified period often results in termination. This constant uncertainty creates a stressful and unproductive work environment.

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.
