Pros

Great work atmosphere, good technical team, good training, if you work hard you will be rewarded, it is a good company to have on your CV, for a major SI the management approach is relaxed, fair work/life balance, as a consultant they provide good expense scheme.

Cons

Unfair promotions, hard to move up the corporate ladder, it sometimes feels like the management do not know what they are doing. Promotion is sometimes based on who you know rather than what you know or what you did. If you are in a lower grade then you might as well leave anc come back to get a big promotion or pay rise.

Pros

It's a great consulting firm with a good balance between personnal and professionna life. Due to his big size, a lot of knowledge can be shared during trainings and possibilities exist to be transfered in different countries.

Cons

The buy out of Ernst and Young was difficult adn the brand of Capgemini Consulting is the beeing launched in the US. There's still a lot of work to do to be a global firm. The position in the management consulting and the name of Capgemini sometimes lead people to misunderstant our real value

Pros

As an IT consulting / services company, most of the projects are longer term in nature. As a result you generally relocate to a city. Compensation in India is on the higher end (compared with Indian market) but in US its on the lower end (compared with US market) for similar job. Depending on the project you might get away with 40 hr work week. Almost all the managers I worked with are friendly and understanding.

Cons

The usual with consulting. Your job changes with different projects especially at Sr Consultant level. Once you become a manager you are generally involved in project delivery with little time for anything else. A mentor program has been started in 2008 which should improve the year-end review process. Before this program, the project manager who you last worked with was responsible for representing you in round tables. It could happen that you worked multiple projects in a year but are stuck with latest manager. Additionally, appraisals and promotion are somewhat based on round tables so even though your manager thinks you deserve a promotion it may not happen depending on how much he sells you and how the company, account and your project have performed. Networking is important to know about new opportunities. Internal requirements are not posted on the intranet and you need to either contact the staffing manager or know about projects from your internal network.
