I hear this company mentioned all the time, has anyone ever worked for them?

From my experience of working with them....

Bunch of useless ****wits!

They managed to connect a main cable to a lan point at one place. That takes some skill.

Haha! Awesome. That outdoes the users at work who try and plug USB flash drives into PS/2 adapters, then into the keyboard socket.

I know quite a few guys who work for them through an online game I play, but not sure what the company is actually like. I can pass a few questions on if you have something specific you'd like to know?

Sogeti, CAP Gemini Sogeti, Hoskyns, Cap Gemini Ernst & Young, Cap Gemini - All part of the same group or acquired/merged with them at some point.

Worked for them for 6.5 years. Worst employer I have ever had the misfortune to work for (well give them their due they were fine for the first 2 years but then went downhill rapidly). I left them 5 years ago, however, things appear not to have changed at all since I left. Half of my current team left them to come and work for my employer because they were so sick of working for them (on further discussion it turned out for the same reasons I left and then some).

There are certain parts of the company that are OK to work for but they are few and far between.

Well I've had a call about a '2nd/3rd line' role (which I'm guessing is just desktop support like I do now), I'm interested in what kind of progression prospects I'd have as they're talking about less money.
