Nice, until it wasn't

Pros

Fully remote work was allowed for me, until it wasn't.

Cons

I had a boss, technically, but in the two years i worked there, not once did I talk to him. For the vast majority of my time here, I had ZERO work. Nice at first, getting paid to do nothing? Score. But inevitably you get assigned, and are expected to hit the ball running. As I got this job out of college, I had no experience. I tried my best to do what was asked but no one either at Cap or my assignment (Fidelity) acted like they wanted to help. In the whole time I was without assignment, all I was told is "Learn, keep your skills sharp." That's great and all but in programming that's not NEARLY enough direction. What language? What parts of it?

Pros

Only good during intern or fresh graduate to lean how to work hard but dont stay longer .

Cons

The leadership at Capgemini is the worst I've ever encountered. They engage in dirty politics, particularly targeting hard-working employees. I strongly advise against coming to the US through Capgemini if you are on a work visa. The HR and Managed Services teams also engage in dirty politics. The company has a habit of forcing employees on visas to either return to their home country or resign, even when there are available projects within Capgemini US with other business units (BUs). I have seen cases where if you are not in good books on one of the leaders, out of spite, change a number 1 performance rating to a 3 or 4 if they don't like you, even though your manager has given you a number 1 rating. They refuse to transfer employees to other BUs, deliberately frustrating hard-working employees with good performance.Now, many of my friends are facing the same problems I experienced. For some, resigning is not an option due to visa complications, and HR takes advantage of this by making their work life even more difficult. Unfortunately, I was one of their victims and was forced to resign instead of being allowed to transfer to another project they forced me to go back.I am grateful to no longer work for this company, I regret wasting many years of my career there but i see the same things happening again and again even after so many years . Capgemini has a bureaucratic nature that offers little room for growth or for employees to stay, regardless of how many years they have dedicated to the company. Leadership is often hired from outside rather than grown from within, and there is minimal effort to retain good talent.

Pros

- Good ERG programs - You will meet some great coworkers

Cons

- Management really sucks, I worked for this company for 3 years and only spoke to my manager twice. When they place you on a project, they let the client managers control you and talk down to you and when you complain to your higher ups, they tell you not to take it personal. During my pregnancy, I had the worst time working at this company. My client manager made it his mission to make my life miserable. I was screamed at every chance he got and talked down to. I cried almost everyday working for this company. Work-life balance sucks, you work extra overtime without any compensation and zero recognition
