Pros
Capgemini is an amazing place to launch a career in IT consulting. I feel it is truly a meritocracy where hard work is rewarded through promotions and recognition.
Cons
Hard work may be recognized and rewarded through promotions but not through increased compensation. Incoming base salary is a heavy weight to move (employees may be bought in from other companies at a high rate, and stay ahead of the overachievers on compensation). Work life balance is lost due to the no over time policy, meaning managers are poised to continuously ask for consultants to end their days late in the night. Getting varied experience across industries also proves difficult if you are positioned into a business unit serving a niche market. Annual training requirements are far too low and higher education is not supported.
