Pluspunten
Avanade focuses on development of it's employees. All employees are encouraged to get some amount of training in a given year. There are a wide variety of clients out there for us and always something new to do. They help you find the area you excel in and focus your abilities in that direction. Every employee is assigned a career manager to help guide them through their advancement and navigate the waters of the corporate side of things. Management, regionally at least, make an effort to get to know their employees and go out of the way to meet them.
Minpunten
Some of the managers are not willing to listen to an employees point of view. If negative feedback comes in from a client, their word is taken explicitly and no weight is given to the consultant's side of things. Some career managers can be "too busy" and leave an employee to float along on their own.
