Pros

I made a few friend during my time there, but generally speaking there are very few pros.

Cons

My time at Capgemini has been incredibly challenging and disappointing. I am an experienced executive with several years in my professional career and I can say with confidence that this is the most negative experience of my career. Capgemini is incredibly dysfunctional which I attribute to its size and quality of its leaders. Everyone is incredibly uncollaborative, unsupportive, and outright unprofessional. Don't expect any meaningful onboarding, you are expected to just "figure it out". Once you do have a few months under your belt, collaborating with anyone is incredibly challenging. No one is motivated to work with one another, no one returns emails and phone calls, and leadership models this negative behavior on a consistent basis. Beyond this, Capgemini is predominantly South Asian (I would venture to say over 90%). As such, if you are not a part of that clique it will be difficult to be treated with respect and given equal treatment. If you are a more junior employee, you will be treated like one. Your perspectives and experience will not be valued. More so, you will have client access restricted and skipped over for opportunities. I observed this to be even more severe for females.

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.
