Pros

Generally a good brand consultancy firm, it will look good on your CV and to your future employers.

Exposure to big, complex projects, which can challenge you but are also good for your experience and development.

Some great colleagues; very talented and knowledgeable people.

Cons

Processes are horrific and dated. You genuinely don't get the feeling you work for Capgemini when you are 100% assigned to a client project which is a long-term engagement. Processes within the company are slow, dated, and confusing. Training is virtually nonexistent, as is onboarding. Pay is low in comparison to other consultancy firms, and promotions are difficult to obtain. Bonuses are only applicable to very senior positions.

Be prepared to travel and sacrifice work-life balance if you are staffed on a project that is not near your base.

Advice to Management

People First is just your motto; take it seriously.
