Capgemini reviews

100% travel - you may be on the beach sometimes, but when you are not you are on the road Political Company - you have to really network to do well at Cap - partially because people are on various projects and not in an office, you have to work to make sure people know who you are. Work/Life Balance can be tough - type A, bright employees work a lot of hours.

Kanbay folks could never be integrated with Capgemini, they were always the outsiders. The only guy who benefited was the Australian owner who rebranded Kanbay around 2005 only to sell it 2 years later. I was part of 1500 folks who were laid off in 2009, who were told to "resign" to get proper relieving document and get 3 months salary as notice. It broke my morale and my self-confidence. The surprising part was that they came back with a job-offer within 3 months, which I declined. What kind of a organisation lacks a business view 3 months on the horizon, that it takes a risk of putting reputation at stake through lay-offs.
