Avanade

"It is good workplace to work if you can offer more benefits"

"It's a grind and working hard doesn't get you promoted. It's a boy's club."

"It is great if you are first starting out, but if you want a family it just isn't possible. The travel is extensive and not something that can be accomplished with a young family."

"Great place to start your career but not a great place to grow - too many processes and policies that hold women back, especially women who are client facing. "

"Avanade is amazing! Highly recommend it for the challenging work and supportive culture."

"We have an ever-learning culture. If you don't have a skill you believe you need - we got you covered. "

"Its been a great experience being part of Avanade Family. I would encourage women to join Avanade if you are looking for supportive environment. Not only Women but in general diversity is encouraged within teams. I have met people from so many different culture and its amazing. "

"Our leaders are committed to making this an equitable and fulfilling place to work for everyone! "

"I've been fortunate to take advantage of the global and digital nature of the company. I work hard, but have the freedom and flexibility to manage my schedule so that I can meet client demands, but also personal demands outside of work. "

"Prepared to be one of the only women. The Sales Force is made primarily of men and that is the driving money maker in the company. If you work in any other department, you really don't notice, but it is a company culture catered to a male dominant work force."

"Avanade is an empowering place to work. Here, I am valued for my skills, ideas, and contributions - my gender and race do not define me. I have found the most inclusive culture in my career at Avanade."

"Success here depends on who you know and whether the Executives in your network care to invest in you or not. They aren't rewarded for helping people underneath them, they have to be intrinsically motivated to do so. Some are content to let you sink or swim. But if you get a good Exec, you can do really well here."

"Flexible work from home if your not on a project/depending on the client. Great culture."

"Avanade is a diverse and inclusive employer. Our challenge in further diversifying the gender balance in our workforce is directly impacted by the number of women in STEM in general. If you are in STEM I encourage you to explore Avanade as we are committed to innovation and including all points of view in our high quality client deliveries."

"I've been with the company for more than 13 years and I can't think of a better place to be. I enjoy what I do and who I work with. The company gives me the flexibility to do my job as I feel it should be done and to provide the solutions I feel are the right solutions for my client without somebody overseeing every single step taken."

"If you are willing to be paid less as an internal resource than those in travelling consulting you can enjoy freedom to work from home and flexible work hours. It is a popular choice for those balancing being a parent and staying in IT consulting. "

"I love how Inclusion & Diversity is one of the core strategies of Avanade, and not just by saying it, but by (pro-)actively engaging with the right initiatives. Avanade is truly a place where you can thrive as a female and they make sure you're own career goals come first."

"The company has many programs to promote and encourage female leaders to grow and develop. Senior leadership speaks about this regularly and actively works to promote gender diversity among their teams. "

"Speak up and ask for higher positions - there aren't many women here yet but no one seems to have a problem promoting women if they're working hard!"

"The internal services teams at Avanade have a higher percentage of women than the rest of the organization. "

"It's a great company to work for, they have great benefits, can be flexi with what you need and are currently recruiting more and more women."

"Do I think Avanade is an equal opportunities employer? - Absolutely. Do I think we still have work to do? - Of course. Do we have the want and the drive to be inclusive and attract and retain more women? - Without doubt."
