Pros

Great people and wonderful benefits

Cons

none that I can think of

Avanade is committed to inclusion and diversity in everything we do. This commitment didn’t start at the top—it’s been part of our core since our founding in 2000. We are proud that it is reflected in our CEO, Pam Maynard, who is a British woman of color and one of few black woman CEOs, especially in the technology space. Pam represents what’s possible, and many of us work each day to make inclusion part of business as usual here.

Avanade’s culture is built on three pillars:

  • Inclusion: All individuals feel respected, heard, and that they can do their best work
  • Diversity: Our workforce demographics reflect our clients and communities
  • Belonging: Everyone can be their authentic selves at work and that they feel welcomed and valued

Employees can join together around a shared identity and cause through our four employee networks—INSPIRE Black Employee Network, Prism LGBT Employee Network, Veterans Employee Network, and Women’s Employee Network. Members of our employee networks can leverage resources, guidance, information, support and strength from the collective whole. They also create opportunities for non-members to broaden their understanding of the unique issues faced by different groups within our Avanade and global communities.

Avanade and you.

The impact of a global player with the feel of a close-knit team.

Avanade has been around for more than two decades, but we have the energy of someone who has just shown up and seen how much there is to do. So many opportunities to innovate within the Microsoft ecosystem. So much to learn and explore. And so many people who share our ambitions for making a genuine human impact.

We are always looking for lifelong learners who share our passion for stretching the boundaries of the possible. People to help us do things like using AI to track puffins off Scotland’s coast for an energy company committed to responsible growth. Or work with a health care provider focused on hearing issues so it can connect people and businesses more effectively with its products and information.

Complacent people don’t innovate. They don’t grow. That’s why you won’t find much complacency at Avanade. We’re filled with people who are focused on “what if.” We give them room and resources to explore possibilities. And we point them at the Microsoft platform, which continues to evolve and open new avenues for innovation.

Avanade welcomes curiosity. We explore possibilities with our clients every day. We are curious about how different experiences and backgrounds shape who we are and how we view the world. And we’re always looking for people who are not just curious about the boundaries of technology—which we keep pushing—but about their own possibilities as well. Where could your career take you if you were surrounded by meaningful work, solid support, and endless learning opportunities? We want to help you find out.

If you are ready to take your career from “what if” to “what’s next,” let’s talk.

Why You

You see beyond what things are to what they could be.

Life at Avanade

Live. Connect. Grow.

Life at Avanade is really more like life with Avanade, because we don’t want you to live here. Or even live for here. We want you to have a place where you do your best work, connect with other people, and still have enough in the tank to go out and live a full life.

Avanade people come together in various employee groups around shared interests, background, and experiences. Our employee groups can make you feel at home while making all of Avanade a more diverse, understanding, celebratory workforce.

Grow.

We dare you to go a day at Avanade without learning something. It isn’t easy. Whether you’re taking advantage of our learning options and certification programs or having an honest discussion with colleagues, you’ll be living in a world of possibilities.
