I am not a developer but I work in CG. Since you mentioned you wish to have job security, I will suggest that only if you have given client rounds and have complete guarantee that you will be joining them from day 1 as billable resource, only then join CG.
People (especially lateral joinees) are struggling so much to get into projects. The bench size is huge. Once your profile starts getting old they would not care about your skills but will only care about tagging you in some or other project. I see people who have joined Months ago and still struggling to get projects. On the top of it, in few weeks some will start to bother you saying that, if you don't get project in this particular time they will terminate, not approve probation period etc. etc. So, if you have project confirmation then only join CG.

but i think this thing is for all service based company. sab me aaj kal esa hi chal raha he. jab tak projects chalta he tab tak thik he.


btw cg means capegemini?

Would suggest to join Principal. Have worked in Principal for 5 years and i find that very employee friendly and job security is very good.

tips to learn java coding,, how do I practice what approach should I take to learn logic and become a java coder

like

Buy a Udemy course. If not, spend time on YouTube focusing on a specific topic.

Before saying “I want to learn Automation”, ask yourself which core language you want to use for automation.

Since you already have experience, choose the language your product is built on—for example, Java. First, learn Java basics and OOP concepts. Then move on to automation using Java tools like Selenium or Rest Assured.

Progress only when you are confident with the fundamentals. If not, stay on step one until you are solid.

Eventually, you’ll realize it’s not the language that matters—it’s the approach

What's your cctc?

Bro, I'm searching for java backend role and constantly applying for this role but not getting calls cause as I have 1.5 years of gap now. What should I do in this situation and what should be expected salary if any hr ask me about it? My last salary was 4.2 lpa and I have 2 years 3 months of experience.will I get job after this much gap?

So bro,are you doing job right now or not?

Can anyone please provide the job opening info in their company for frontend developer (React js developer).

Is it ur second switch buddy ?

nope its my first switch

Things to consider:
For a service company, are you going to bench or have you given client interview.
If you know the client, do some research on the project or product. Some projects will be in maintainance mode hell !! No coming back from that

Also, notice period in the company is important when you decide to switch from there.
CG has a 3 month NP. Big big red flag.
I am an alumni of that company and I’d advice anyone to avoid it like the plague 😀
To much drama and politics to ensure for not enough pay tbh

Hope this helps

Just here to say I’m so thankful we have this safe space. People who aren’t diagnosed generally have misconceptions about ADHD and its symptoms, and I’m so grateful we have this bowl to seek help, learn from one another, and sometimes just vent!

Went from a big firm to work for a smaller firm. The people in the smaller firm are protective of their work and are good by their work too. I no longer feel chaos or stress. I am treated with respect and my schedule is more normal. I am even working more billable hours than before, but it feels like a seamless experience. I don’t work then past 5pm or anything out of the ordinary for this time of the year. I am so grateful!

I honestly struggle with the politics of Afghanistan. It does appear that after 20 years we leave and within months it goes back to very similar or on its way. It’s not the US job to be the world police we did try to build coalitions and fail at the end of the day unless we’re willing to keep troops there forever which most Americans don’t want to I am not sure what the right thing to do is. And I’m sick of criticism just for the sake of the president. I don’t think there’s a perfect solution
