There are really friendly people, as everyone is open to getting to know you, if you ask.
It's got a great work-life balance. It's what you do out-of-work to make sure there's a balance, but the flexible hours allow you not limit yourself.
There are several events throughout the year that get organised - increased chance to network.
There's also great volunteering opportunities (where 2 days are obligatory - which I believe is a great initiative) and also opportunities to get involved in internal Capgemini challenges - fantastic in developing your skills and knowledge.
Lastly, they fully sponsor all certifications open to you, not just unit-focused ones; helping progress your skills - ideal in setting you up for future moves.
Cons
Things don't just get handed to you. This isn't necessarily a con. It's more of a challenge for the individual.
If you're not willing to find or ask about opportunities, nothing will really happen.
Your career and journey is up to you. So, it's about what you do that drives it.

Thank you for taking the time to post a review. We are really proud of our graduate scheme and it's great to hear that you're enjoying it! You're right that things aren't always handed to you here. There are loads of opportunities for learning and development, but those opportunities will come your way more quickly if you are proactive about seeking them out and asking for them. Good luck with the rest of your graduate scheme!
Great opportunities to learn and be trained. Very supportive management. Amazing opportunities arise every so often which you can get involved with as part of a wider team which is exciting. Work with new technology. The career is what you make it. Work life balance is very good.
Cons
Work can be slow which is frustrating. This differs the higher you go as expected but is frustrating when trying to learn.
Excellent opportunities to find your future career path.
Flexibility and agile working is encouraged.
Great pension scheme.
Support provided at all times .
Cons
They hire a lot of graduates , so you don't get as much attention
