OK my interview is confirmed for 10:30AM CST in Irving, TX. And supposedly, the recruiter who sent me the e-mail said that the interviews (assuming more than one) will conclude around 1pm CST.
I would appreciate if any of you out there could provide me any "honest" insight about the company's current standing (from a stability perspective and otherwise). I am particularly curious to know whether or not making the move to Cap Gemini would be a good career move or not. I'm looking for a good opportunity for career growth, job stability to some degree (this has been there with BE but the future looks quite uncertain), and most of all, better compensation than what I'm getting at BE. I'm sure that my scenario story is one that is probably quite common amongst a majority of you out there. You've worked a couple of years for a Consultancy but have received minimal raises. The difference here is that I've not even received 1 with BE. Having said this, I still don't know why I would stay longer with them.
At present, BE is facing some major accounting problems as well as a significantly high rate of attrition. As far as the attrition goes, I am sure it is probably present anywhere you go but trust me, not as high as BE has been recently experiencing.

I came over from Cap to BE in June of last year. I can give you plenty of honest insight. From my view, BE is a better choice, the potential for growth now that the filing is over for the most part, coupled with the steady income from PS is BE's strength. "Leadership" in NA at Cap is a revolving door at best, and a holding area for non-performers at worst. Add in continued poor management of NA from across the pond, and it was a moot point for me. Nine months later, I still stand by my decision. Let me know if you'd like to talk real time.
