Pros

If you are good in ‘curry flavoring’ the bosses and do little work but still want to get a high salary, then this place is ok for you.

Cons

Beware of good ratings for Capgemini Singapore. Their KPI is to increase glassdoor rating. They have insiders to place good reviews to reflect an overall better rating. It did not fare well previously; a 2+. All the managers and senior management in Singapore, Hong Kong and Malaysia are Indians from India. Because of that, it operates as a local 'FAMILY' subsidiary rather than as a global consulting firm. Diversity and Inclusion is claimed but not clearly evident and practiced in the current environment. Why are leaders from Capgemini Global or Capgemini APAC or the other non-Indian senior leaders closing one eye to this and letting Indian management run the show loose? 1. Most of these management and their one-or-two downs are also very biased and prefer hiring Hindi-speaking people more than anyone else. They speak in Hindi most of the time, including the management. 2. They like their own people who have stayed in the company for some years and so treat them like close friends and relations. And they also recruit their own relations or friends who then soon after obtain better favors and benefits (including monetary) than rest. They can influence HR to pick and choose their own people. Then what's the point of having HR who indirectly endorses Indian individuals only? 3. They like people who only know how to talk but gets things done through the others. So what's the point of working hard? At the end of the day, their own people get promoted left and right. Else, you will need to know how to get a good name with the management. So what does this show? Due to all of these and it's because they think this company belongs to them, management turns deaf ears and blind eyes to other good thoughts and perspectives.

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.
