Sogeti reviews

Because of the strongly sales oriented nature of the company (it's all about making profit) there are situations that you as a consultant may become involved with that are difficult and rather sticky during your representation to a Sogeti client. Be wary of over committing yourself as the expectations will be set at the bar you set for yourself. It should also be noted that the initial negotiation and hiring process for Sogeti tends to be long and drawn out with many interviews (usually by phone). Make sure you negotiate the salary you expect at the beginning, pay increases are not tied promotions directly, only the upper limits are tied to your position.

The expectation to always be a salesperson is a huge turnoff, especially when not all people are comfortable with sales. Lots of pressure to remain knowledgeable on all technologies that are hot on your own time. Does not have a very good training program in place, this could be done a lot better. You are knocked for being 'on the bench' when there are no projects. If there are no projects going on while on the bench, you run the risk of being let go from the company. The job security is next to nothing. The newly implemented bonus program is very unfair and rewards a cut-throat mentality vs. teamwork on projects.
