Pros

Diverse workforce with excellent knowledge artifacts from global, leading practice experts. If you like to travel and are looking to immerse yourself in the culture, Capgemini is a good place to start your career.

Cons

Capgemini US is a shadow of the rest of the global Capgemini organization and it's hard not to feel like the homely, unloved little brother no one talks about. Capgemini dominates many of the European markets in which it competes, lavishing perks upon those employees, while Capgemini US is at best a middling consultancy known for SAP installations. These are perceptions management is well aware of and yet is largely unable to meaningfully address. The best talent at Capgemini moves on eventually to the bigger firms for more money and better recognition while the remaining employees are shuffled around waiting to see if the latest restructuring will change the status quo. If you have an offer with another leading consulting firm, there is no compelling reason to pick Capgemini.

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.
