Sogeti Reviews

Pros

Multiple opportunities to learn new technology
Management always allows you to speak your mind
Better than average benefits
Great people peers and management
Training available when you need / want it
Structured on-boarding and counseling better than most consulting firms
And more …

Cons

Consultants who come from ‘traditional’ companies seem to have problems with the freedom offered. Sometimes they require more structure and that’s not Sogeti. Every individual has the ability, support and encouragement to grow and advance at their own pace. Some just need more structure!

Advice to Senior Management

Provide all the office in the company with the same proven practices that exist in Cincinnati. This office has been around over 25 years and has a great track record with employee satisfaction, growth and advancement. This office may not be perfect yet, and we never stop looking at how to get better!

Pros

- Good Salary
- Provide training opportunities and resources

Cons

- Feel disconnected from the company working offsite
- Don't know who to speak to about work issues and also growth opportunities

Advice to Senior Management

Do a better job of enforcing the counselor program so that consultants feel like they have someone to speak to and to connect better to the company ideals

Pros

work life balance is very good. You get the ability to get internal trainings for personal growth. The company if very healthy financially

Cons

Treating all your employees he same way is not very fair. Their hardly any place for real talent who wants to grow. They dont have a real coaching system for growth and financially it's impossible to make big steps.

Advice to Senior Management

Come up with a proper strategy plan and dare to invest. All actions are short term based and won't help the company survive the crisis we are in.

Pros

Local Touch - Global Reach is real. Consultants don't travel unless they want to. All the benefits of a large, global powerhouse of a company with a small company, entrepreneurial spirit and empowerment in each city. Outstanding and growing alliance with Microsoft at all levels! Smart, collaborative co-workers and leadership teams who really care! Great training programs and opportunities for growth.

Cons

We're growing fast, with new clients and opportunities abounding, so recruiting great talent fast enough is a constant challenge.

Advice to Senior Management

Consider more strategic and complimentary acquisitions (and partnerships) to help sustain accelerated growth.

Pros

Great education compensation program and internal learning programs.

Cons

Account executives are generally very busy and difficult to track down when an issue rises. They are taking the right steps to fix this and I know they're talented so this will be addressed.

Advice to Senior Management

Look beyond technology services and look towards building marketing and advertising positions. This will definitely be a slow process, but something that would greatly benefit the talent that works here.

Pros

good salary. else nothing is good here. at some departments work may be good and cool even without work for a long time .

Cons

worst management
demoralising behavior by managers
people who can shout more becomes a hero.
not good for good technical persons. i advice a proper talented technical guy not to join in sogeti india, bangalore

Advice to Senior Management

know your people who work for you. listen to their problem at the work place. higher level managers stop thinking abt ur salary

Pros

Strong emphasis for certifications, good communication between co-workers. Management will carefully listen what you have to say, even if they don't act accordingly. However, if you're volunteer and strive to puch your career up, people will help you.

Cons

When on a long mission, head management will forget you if you don't communicate well about what you're doing. Managers will not try to push you if you don't do it yourself

Advice to Senior Management

Come more frequently meet staff on the customer's site ... if you don't, people will forget they're primarily Sogeti employees and will end up acting as customer's employees. Don't let people stay more than 3 years ont the same mission.

Pros

- good opporunities to start some interesting jobs in subcontractor for Aerospace companies
- medium and short term mission meaning some good opportunities to acquire experience in several fields.

Cons

- low salary
- few opportunities to evolve and improve your position among Sogeti
- bad management policy : distant and more dedicated to improve their bonus than your well being.

Advice to Senior Management

Try to be a little more closer to your employees, and also more honest. Employees can take their responsabilities as well if they are given just causes.
e.g. do not hide behind the crisis to reduce augments while still provinding to all the employees communication in glass paper by mail : this is uncomprehensible. (among all else)

Pros

If there is no job anywhere else in the market and if you intend ot spend your life bootlicking your boss and grow SOgeti India is the best place

Cons

A very useless management.The senior managers and manager at SOgeti India believe in the age old concept of " Might is Right".Professional ethics is a topic which would be be the last thing the management over here thinks about.The bootlickers enjoy all the benefits of the organization where as the other hardworking people are shouted at and labelled as not following the procedures which can be interpreted as per the whims and fancies of the management and the interpretation changes everytime.Female employees get special recognition for being " close " to the managers.

Advice to Senior Management

Resign if you are incapable or let the capables ones do their job.DO not shout like street urchins and demoralise the really capable and working members of the team.

Pros

Good career opportunities, good pay... they do take care of their employees.

Cons

If you work as a consultant, Sogeti's only concern is for their client. That means, when it comes to personal life-work balance, they just do not care. Also, don't think that they care about your career advancement once you are in the door.

Advice to Senior Management

Help consultants and contractors to feel like they are a part of the company.
