Bench ka Kya system hain bhailog capgemini mein?
Hi fishes,
Anyone joined coforge recently? Any reviews for the same? Is it worth to join this organisation? They told me they are hiring for Santander bank account but still be having client interview before onboarding to project. Any idea on this account? Is it tough to crack client interview over there? Don't want to face long bench hours like it used to be in Publicis sapient which led to brutal lay off. Kinda sceptical to join as it is giving me Publicis sapient vibes.Coforge Coforge ltd

My wife has her joining date extended from Randstad and no joining date has been provided. What are the chances of her offer getting revoked. She has around 1 year of experience in HR. She got to know about this just on the last day of her notice period. She doesnt have any other offer as she didnt expect the joining date to get extended. Randstad.

OP, I think "doing your own thing" for a month will get you into a big utilization hole that is tough to get out of. You should be able to handle training and BD at the same time as project work any ways, which is the expectation at D. I wouldn't linger on the bench too long if an opportunity present itself.
Seems like the bench is pretty big based on the available practitioner reports I see.
There's s&o in federal?
We're still hiring like mad it looks like
So must be some availability, especially in national security
Not sure what it's like over there but the bench can rack up during late spring and summer but it's all good unless you can't get staffed in November. Government awards pour in at September
Do you all feel like there's not insane pressure to be staffed immediately? I don't care about utilization and kinda wanna do my own thing (bd, training, etc) for a month...
What D1 said. If you can get staffed with a project that's a decent fit, it's going to be a hard case to make that you just wanted to do training and BD or something for personal development...
gotcha, thank you all!
OP, what level are you? I think that also factors into how picky you can be. Is there a reason you don't have something lined up already you using your network since it sounds like you were on LOA?
SC, been with the firm 3 years, never on the bench. I've always been on projects I didn't want to be on so I thought it would be worthwhile to take some time on the bench to find a project I actually wanted to do.
(i was hired into a project, seriously never been on the bench :)
