Pros

You have a opportunity to learn a lot from industry leaders. Everyone is very helpful and willing to help.

Cons

Accenture projects are a little tedious and tend to run quite long. Hours are long. The mentality is to get your work done no matter how long it takes. Pay is under par, competeing offers are easily 10-15% higher

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.
