Pros

There was CCD just below the below and that was the only pros. This company sucks on a whole new level.

Cons

Where do I start? They'll ask you to come to office every weekend and work extra hours and won't even compensate you enough for the hours you put it. No matter how high Sapient offers you, it'll always be lesser than the amount of hours they'll expect you to work. 2. Bad food, bad cafeteria, no options and too pricey 3. Transport and work timings 4. Managers and their communication 5. Nothing to innovate, same old medieval technologies. 6. You'll NEVER get any project related to your skillset. They "cross-train" and expect you to work ALWAYS. 7. Work environment. Sapient has toxic work environment and it sucks the life out of people. One of the reasons they've extremely high attrition rate. 8. If you can please people and lick boots, this is the place for you. 9. Hard work NEVER gets paid here

Pros

Organized Clear promotion structure DEI friendly + company orgs to join Good pay, benefits, location You're connected to mentors

Cons

Client placement may take a while Lots of training on basic things from my university courses, while they're very beginner friendly, it didn't feel like the best use of my time Worked on a toy project instead of introductions to real world impact projects. You're evaluated more on your ability to network, build relationships, and visibility (which is important when working with clients) as opposed to technical skills - the assumption is that the training they offer will get you up to par In hindsight, there were a lot of unwritten rules that caught me off guard in terms of networking and performance requirements, so the lack of a return offer blindsided me. DEI was huge in 2022 but wasn't genuine and had double standards. They mentioned holding "safe spaces" to speak, but it was not *really* safe and you're still speaking in a corporate place with unspoken professional world rules. Ifykyk.
