Pros

The GAP (Graduate, Apprentice, Placement) programmes and GAP support team are second to none! They support me fully through my degree apprenticeship at Aston University. The pro's of the scheme is that you work full time on a client project learning every day working within teams and individually whilst studying outside of work putting into practice the theories you learn at university into every day working life. I love my role at Capgemini - there are loads of opportunities to do exactly what you want to do in your career. There's a brilliant career path where you are reviewed 4 times a year for pay and promotion. The company benefits you can buy are brilliant value and lots of choice. Best decision I ever made!

Cons

If you are doing the degree apprenticeship be prepared to be doing all studying for your degree - upto 15 hours usually a week outside of working ours in the evenings and at weekends - you have to be prepared to have less of a social life and gain your degree whilst working full time.

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.
