Pros

Cracking Capgemini's Interview is easiest thing in this globe. They release offer letter very soon may be in a week or two. They provide laptops so that you can handle things from Home as well.

Cons

Capgemini will pay you fair salary only if you have cross offer else you will be under paid. The non technical managers are worst as they don't have any idea about the technical complexity and Hence they fail to estimate the time lines so they expect miracles from developers. Non Technical Manager take your project interview in some other framework and assigns you work in different framework with a very strict timelines may less than 5 days or so. Non Technical Managers directly fires you and even HR has an tie ups with them. HR will not even listen to your reasons. Non Technical Managers call you on Saturday's and Sunday's and ask the work status and they build unnecessary pressure on your personal life. Non Technical Managers assigns work to you considering Saturday and Sunday as your working days. NOTE : I was working in the project named PLEIADE and I am sharing my experience based on it. It may happen that Capgemini might be a good company.

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.
