Pros

often can work with very intelligent people changing job responsibilities competitive compensation work life balance can be great depending on the project probably awesome if you are in software

Cons

1. management -dominated- by indian men. if you aren't an indian man it seems to be unable to be promoted 2. job security is poor. the capgemini model is to outsource as much work as possible to india, at all costs. US engineers are used to generate sales, ultimately to send all the work to india. The US resources then are too expensive, so they are let go when work slows down 3. despite claiming "get the future you want" and claiming to pride themselves on their talent, the company will lay people off before ever even suggesting something like training, development, different roles, etc. They will let you go and just hire someone else, regardless of your history/track record 4.multi-billion dollar company has the cheapest travel policy of all time. unless you're a high level manager you can't fly anything other than coach.

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.
