Pros

Decent place to get foot in the door type when starting new or taking a break in between your career transition.

Cons

Extreme boys club, 0 diversity, women are not treated well and instead of giving them voice they shut them down. Average work, organization itself requires big transformation and vision, too many silos and duplications in the organization, very sales focused which takes aways the client focus. Old Indian boys who supports one another and creates no room at the top for others. Lip services for diversity but bad place for women overall. People are overworked in useless and operational things. The CEO (Global and US) needs to shake up things and break the boys club culture. No voice from him (US CEO) ever heard within the organization. The board and shareholders should pay some attention and look into internal core issues. Capgemini can struggle and disappear like how big giant Nokia did!! If you are a women aspired to do well in your career, move on look somewhere else.

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.
