Capgemini reviews

Lower pay Slower career growth

My experience at Capgemini was extremely disappointing. Despite all the talk about career development and finding projects that match your profile, in reality consultants are treated as interchangeable resources. When a project ends, your skills, performance, and the value you delivered do not really matter. If you are not immediately billable, you become a problem. Instead of being honest about the situation, management uses vague terms like “restructuring” while avoiding real conversations about the lack of available projects. There is very little transparency about what is actually happening. People are not told the truth about risks or timelines, and they are not given the chance to make informed decisions. You can be led to believe that new opportunities are being searched, only to suddenly be let go when nothing appears. Another serious issue is the complete lack of coordination between Capgemini and the client. Consultants are often left alone to deal with unclear expectations, conflicts, and broken communication between both sides — something that should never be the responsibility of the consultant. In the end, it becomes clear that you are just a number in a spreadsheet. Loyalty, effort, and competence do not protect you if you are temporarily without a project.
