Pros

They provided a Guidewire certification training for 1 month.

Cons

If you're coming straight out of college, this isn't the right place for you to start your career. You will be placed in a client-facing role directly, regardless of whether you have any prior experience in the role or not. There's no manager/ senior person from Capgemini to guide you and you are expected to fulfil your client's requirements right from the first day you have been assigned to a client. If the client doesn't like your work/gives a negative feedback, you'll be fired by Capgemini regardless of whether you've tried your best or not. That was my story at Capgemini. Also, if you are being assigned to a 'Performance Improvement Program', which they claim is for mentoring/ helping you to improve your performance on a weekly basis for a month, consider it as a signal to search for a new job as they will fire you at the end of the program anyway, regardless of whether you've made any improvement during the program or not.

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.
