Hi I am part of the VLSI domain in Capgemini engineering. The people at capgemini do not increase salary for freshers. When I joined the put me as a trainee for 6 months and I used to get around 18k per month for 6 months even though I was directly deployed in a project. And then after I got converted to a full time employee and they promised a salary of 4.5L per year. Now even after 18 months of joining they haven't increased my salary. And the work pressure is also high. what they told me was that i am eligible for salary hike only after 2 years from date of joining. 6 months (trainee) + 18 month (date of joining) = 2 years to get at least a bare minimum salary hike. They also have a bond which they make you sign for 3 years and the bond amount is 6.75 Lakhs so you can be treated like a corporate slave.
