Together we go beyond stereotypes and see the whole you
When we pursue our passion for technology and innovate with purpose, when we deliver with excellence, and when we believe everyone counts, we are Avanade at our best. We strive to do that every day, making a genuine human impact on the world. Together we do what matters.
Finding the leading edge of innovation and inclusion
Since our founding in 2000, we've been part of a lot of innovation. And AI may be the biggest of them all. Our partnership with Microsoft and leading companies around the world put us in a great position to shape the AI-driven world and to help all our clients thrive in it. Yet, not all clients are ready for AI. They’re focused on innovating in other areas. With our clients and our people, we are committed to doing what matters, and that means meeting you where you are and helping you get where you want and need to be. And the journey is far more enriching and rewarding in an inclusive and diverse environment.
We are always looking for lifelong learners with big imaginations and a commitment to doing what matters. People who can help us transform how doctors make rounds at Seattle Children's Hospital to bring more expertise to more patients. People who can work with Volvo Cars on an environmental impact measurement tool to help the manufacturer be carbon neutral by 2040. Or help CSIRO, a government agency with expertise in climate research, data science and modeling based in Australia, use AI to deliver data visualization faster, making climate actions easy. Across the globe, we’re doing what matters for our people, our clients and our communities.
Gaining new perspectives through Prism
Inclusion and diversity makes every one of us better. We consider as many aspects of identity as we are aware of – all races, gender identities, ethnicities, sexual orientations, disabilities, ages, religions – all people and all phases of life. And we have a strategic framework built around representation, limitless learning and engagement to ensure we're living our commitment every day.
Prism, our LGBTQ+ employee network, aims to empower and support our employees through visibility, knowledge, culture and connections as it relates to the LGBTQ+ community and its allies. Prism’s mission is grounded by four pillars: visibility, knowledge, culture and community. Prism hosts global and regional events help educate and build community within Avanade, including a session around asexuality in the workplace. And blog posts around Pride Month, World AIDS Day and International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia help share Prism members’ stories both in and outside Avanade.
Outside of just Prism, our Chief Inclusion & Diversity Officer, our 14 Employee Networks, and our partnership with organizations like Out & Equal and Human Rights Campaign are hubs of information and activity that strengthen this aspect of our culture.
How we support you
As a global company, our benefits vary by region. The underlying premise for all is that we value each person who works at Avanade. Our focus on bringing in inclusive policies continues, and we’re always working to make our policies more inclusive of our people’s experiences.
We approach our policies and benefits in two ways.
First, we give our employees access to paid time off, bank or federal holidays, disability services, well-being support and more—whatever we can offer to help people show up each day as their full and focused selves.
We also strive to honor each individual’s lives, including gender expression, religious worship, sexual orientation, family construct and the need to take time to focus on other priorities.
