Capgemini

The offices are nice.

Ability to travel for work.

There’s so much racism at Capgemini. Yes, they hire people of color, but the way Black employees are treated is absolutely disgusting. My partner and I have both worked for Capgemini for the past 18 months, and the amount of racism I’ve seen shown towards him is disheartening. As an ally for anyone facing racism, I feel it is my duty to speak up when I can. I have witnessed managers speak over Black employees during meetings, cut them off, question any and everything they do, and strategically target them to have them fired. Enough is enough.

I find it strange that the racism and microaggressions are mostly coming from those of the southeast Asian employees. Capgemini boasts about its diversity but never takes into account what its Black and Brown employees experience. It’s a typical corporate office.

My partner tries to just keep quiet about it, but I can’t allow it to continue. What’s the point in hiring all people of color if you treat the Black employees like incompetent criminals at every chance you get?

I have no advice for management. People have voiced their opinions and experiences before and have been met with gaslighting, and the cycle continues. I’m currently looking for employment elsewhere.
