Capgemini reviews

Noooooooooooo Respect for employees.. they will treat them as a slave. Hidden cost in CTC, they will pay the variable pay yearly once, but dont expect 100%.. u will get around 30% only. While releaving the company u won't get the variable pay.. I loosed around 1 lakh while coming out. They will put u in the client place.. but u won't get expected work.. I was a developer but I got a testing work... when I asked to move back to Capgemini from client place they said minimum 18 months have to work at client location. U can't expect to work in only one city.. when they said u have to move other city.. u have to go.. else they will tell to resign. If u were in bench.. u won't get a project very easyly(3-4 months).. and they won't provide any system to u.. they will have 2 system only for bench people(for 100 people)..u have to b in queue to get it.. and they will expect u to b in office for 9.30 hr per day.. When ur in bench also if u put paper... they won't relieve u.. before 3 months.. I was in bench for 4 months and 3 months in notice period.. I wasted 7 months over there. They said its company rules.. CTC will look great.. but take home will be less. No good hikes if your in good revenue project also.. std will be 5 to 8 % only. U can't buyout the notice period. Either if ur going for hirestudy or medical letter.

1. Leadership - It is non existent. In place of leaders, they have administrators that administer clients, people and results via spreadsheets. 2. Culture - It is schizophrenic . For a firm that asserts the "collaboration, freedom, trust and honesty..." are cornerstones of its organisational culture, it acts in direct contradiction to these values. Leaders and employees do not collaborate but continuously undermine each other to "own" relationships and outcomes for individual gain. Staff have no freedom to express their opinions because there is no 360 degree performance management, cliques exist from the top down and challenging decisions results in detrimental feedback. Interactions from the top down are characterised by an implicit distrust in individual agendas or ability to deliver. And the organisation as a whole is incapable of being honest with itself in terms of its capability, its competitive standing and what it brings to clients. The general culture is characterised by cynicism, apathy and game playing. 3. Priorities - Leadership are unable to articulate a vision or priorities in a way that connects with any human being. Priorities are expressed (almost exclusively) in financial terms, with no clear vision, plan for execution or understanding of tradeoffs. 4. KPIs - KPIs are cryptic, unrealistic and ineffective breeding institutional game playing, cultural fragmentation and devisive behaviours. 5. People Management - There is no clear career path for consultants beyond being placed on whatever opportunity is available at any given time, resulting in sub-standard outcomes for both clients, consultants and their careers. Drive and ambition is discouraged, while complacency and time in grade is rewarded. 6. Ethics - Senior management decisions around resourcing, customer engagement and performance management are often unethical. Too many examples to air... 7. Remuneration - Remuneration and reward systems are opaque, subjective and grossly uncompetitive. Most consultants are being offered significantly more from the clients they serve for less responsibility. The secretive pay scales have never been indexed (to my knowledge) nor have charge out rates. 8. Expertise - There is little to no investment in building or harvesting expertise. Any expertise that is hired is rapidly diluted by shoving 'square pegs in round holes'. Basis for competing is purely on price because of lack of expertise. 9. Sales Bloat - There are far too many sales people that have a complete lack of understanding of consulting, our client's needs and what it takes to deliver, resulting in either troubled projects or employee burnout.
