Pros

-The people are generally nice and helpful to work with on projects - Many people who work here are apathetic about it, therefore if you are in this category you can generally get away without doing much work

Cons

-The pay and compensation package is much lower than competitors and yearly increases for even top performers are 3-5% -As mentioned in other reviews mediocrity is rampant across all parts of the organization -The organization stresses it is entrepreneurial but this is just a poor excuse for poor management and the lack internal processes and organization -Given its low position int the market compared to competitors the terms of sale for projects are often poor resulting in inability for flexibility in working remote, staying at good hotels, and the offshore/onshore mix -VPs are top management are very uninvolved in internal activities or personally developing the team or people -Attrition is very high -Professionalism across all aspects of the organization is low -The company in the US acts at though it wants to be a strategy consulting firm and advisor to clients, but its competitors and its strategy are really aligned with that of Indian Pure Plays (Tata, Infosys, etc). -Very few women and diversity at top levels of the organization. About less than 10 females VPs in the US in client facing roles. -Because Capgemini struggles to win deals, it rarely offers flexible arrangements for projects, while most competitors are increasingly focused on this to retain top talent.

Pros

Pretty flexible. It's cool if you get on a project with a good client, because honestly you will become like a low-class employee at that company who they all dont care about and expect you not to be around very long so if you can deal with that then you can try and have a good time with them.

Cons

Honestly can't believe the audacity and entitlement of the middle management at this place. For example, last year everybody got about 3% merit raises (not at all keeping up with inflation but still something). This year, they were working with the same pool of funds to work with for raises, but made a "business decision" to consolidate the raises to only management. The rest of us got nothing. And the TOLD us they kept everything for themselves. And in addition to that, they twisted the knife by COMPLAINING to the whole department on a department call that their bonuses weren't enough. Just tone-deaf and careless mostly.
