Pros

1) Very good pay if you are joining as lateral. Negotiation possible if you have any other offer in hand. Joining Bonus is give to almost every new lateral joiner. 2) Company spends a lot on Learning and Development activities.

Cons

1) No set hierarchy. Designation system is pathetic. From 5 years to 9 or 10 years experience folks all are called Senior Consultant. So as I joined CapG with 8.5 yrs exp, I was treated the same way as 5 years is treated. And sometimes like a fresher. 2) If you are DW/BI resource you are sure to think twice before joining as quality of projects in DWBI space are not that good in any of the existing accounts. 3) Managers who are there for long time are not trained professionals. They are unaware of what is going on in IT industry and latest trends. They will treat employees as their personal slaves. 4) No probation. Company literally expects you to be productive and value add from Day 1 you are in project. That is bit strange.

Pros

Company provides training on soft skills and technical skills prior to placing on a project.

Cons

Client contracts can end unexpectedly so you may not get to work on a project long term and change from project to project.

Pros

there are no pros for this company

Cons

I was laid off after spending several months on the bench, with "lack of available projects" cited as the reason. However, another consultant in the same role who was also without an active client engagement was retained. As a woman and racial minority, I could not ignore the disparity in how these decisions appeared to be made. Before my termination, I reported being recorded without my consent and raised concerns about conduct that I believed reflected implicit bias. I was referred to as "URM" instead of by my name or role, encouraged toward race based employee resource groups rather than meaningful career opportunities, and repeatedly advocated for fair project placement while on the bench. My employment ended shortly after I raised these concerns. Following my termination, I pursued the matter through the appropriate internal and legal channels. I provided documentation supporting my concerns and gave the company multiple opportunities to investigate and resolve the issues. Rather than meaningfully addressing the evidence or acknowledging the seriousness of the allegations, the company denied wrongdoing, offered what I viewed as a nominal severance, and declined to accept accountability. Employees deserve confidence that concerns about discrimination and retaliation will be investigated objectively and fairly. My experience left me with the opposite impression.
