Capgemini

1. Good working environment if the manager is good. I am lucky as I have the best manager till date.
2. Lot of opportunities to learn new technology.
3. Manager is always supportive of learning and experimenting (we do that in case of excessive bandwidth if we have).
4. No micromanagement, which I feel is the biggest positive point.
5. Encourage work-life balance, which I think is much needed in this time. We are told by the manager itself to log off sometimes if seen online after work hours (unless we are facing a production issue).
6. Encourage independent contribution, which helps us to work freely and means that they trust us.

Only two points I can say:

1. Salary is very challenging. A person with 10 years of experience might have a salary of 15 lac, while someone with 6 years of experience is offered 19 lac. This triggers a challenge between employees. Same-experienced employees have a difference of almost 50%.

2. Internal hikes are very low (1% to a maximum of 3%). Though it's a service-based company, other service-based companies have better standards and they make up for it in the form of hikes again.

In this pandemic, I feel employees could have been given good hikes, as there are no infrastructure costs (at least 50% reduced) for the company.
