What are meetings like at Capgemini?

Seem to be improving processes for new joiners. Many options for self-development.

No pay transparency whatsoever, and no matter how many "Understanding Promotions" type of meetings that are had, there is a huge transparency hole there too.

I got paid. That's the only positive. Capgemini has gone out of their way to ensure I get nothing else out of working here.

- Raises don't happen and, when they do, you get absolute pennies. I had to fight tooth and nail to get anything at all after two years here and I'm pretty sure that the new hires are getting paid more than me at this point. - The company tagline/slogan (get the future you want) applies literally only to clients and people that have been with the company for decades. Skillsets are completely disregarded for project staffing. If you're new, you'll get put onto assignments that are entirely disconnected from what you've done in the past or want to do in the future, and any requests to change that are blatantly ignored. As a result, any actual career development or skill growth has to be done on your own time. - Despite what they say, complaints are seemingly distinctly unwelcome. Any criticism of the company or its practices, from the expectations of long working hours or sub-par pay or delayed promotions or poor staffing practices or literally anything else, is met with "that's just how consulting is" without fail without any consideration of the actual problem. - They'll make specific certifications (Amazon Web Services, for example) mandatory and claim that they're super in-demand despite there being no assignment opportunities that actually use those certifications. Despite AWS skills supposedly being one of the most in-demand things imaginable according to management, I have yet to see a project listing anywhere in the company that actually lists it as a hard requirement, let alone get staffed to a project that uses it. - Expected to be in-office regardless of actual job function, preference, or team location. The Nashville office is exclusively an open-office design, so there's a lot of people in not a lot of space with nothing to reduce sound, so everyone gets to hear everyone else's meetings, which are of course remote through Microsoft Teams because at least half of any team is in India and the other half is scattered across the US.

Well known brand globally, opportunities to transfer and work overseas, learning and career development opportunities are available and there is decent employee support systems and work flexibility. Good if you have good team leadership.

Processes have layers of approval and bureaucracy so can be slow. many internal projects or initiatives often don't consider staff in small regions or different time zones. Company culture is less fun than it used to be prior to Capgemini acquisition and budgets for office events are slim-to-none, pay rises don't always align with good team performance.

Work life balance is good. You can get good support from colleagues and manager. Events are organised apart from work which helps to maintain employee enthusiasm and bonding with co-workers.

Compensation should be better. Notice period should be less.

HR very patient and helpful

i was allocated for training in EPIP office, in the odc i am not getting wifi even though we informed to IT department the problem was not solved. i am using my personal hotspot and its very diffcult to attend meetings

Work life balance, Career opportunities.

Favoritism, nepotism, and insulting individuals in team meetings must be stopped.

Good benefits. Many ways to grow up

a lot of unnecessary meetings and activities that take a lot of time from duties

The onboarding process was smooth. Our SPOC were clear with the rules and regulations and engaged us in a fun session also. Overall experience was good and satisfactory.

Nothing to point out according to me.

• Friendly and organized onboarding team • Good communication and coordination • Lunch and fun activities added a personal touch

Access setup took a bit of time, but it was resolved soon
