“Receiving the Top Employer accolade for another year is testament to the commitment we at Avanade make to our employees,” says Mauro Meanti, Chief Operating Officer, Avanade Europe. “We realise that to continue having the best workforce we need to create an environment that allows our people to be themselves, while providing them opportunities and support to grow their career. We also know how important it is for today’s employees to work in an organisation that is making an impact on not only its clients but also beyond, which is why we support various not-for-profit organisations through our Tech for Social Good initiative and provide our employees with time back to support community initiatives and charities they are passionate about.”
