Pros

Established business and pipeline processes. Reasonable health insurance. Gives you a good start in consulting business when you have had no experience. The name is recognized and valued somewhat.

Cons

Certain practices within Capgemini are very much about staff augmentation. Really hard to make a name for yourself and bring "consulting" efficiencies to clients. Management is really erratic and needs to more professional. The HR system is not run well and often have no idea what expectations are unless employee inquires themselves.

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.
