Thread regarding Sapient layoffs

Sapient is not for experienced people

Really, this is not a good company for experience people. Please discuss with your contact before joining this company, in case you don't beleive on these comments. There can give you salary as much as you want. But be aware, you are enetring in danger zone. Few of my known got fired last month. Very annoying. Some of just got married and some were going to be. I tell you few scnerios they are firing:

1) They don't have any projects specially for backend developer such as Java, AEM etc. If you are on beanch more than 2 months, then danger bell will start ringing.

2) You must have to clear the interview before getting into projects. Trust me, this would be touher than you give at the time you join sapient. If you are not able to clear the interview. your countdown will start.

3) When you roll off from your project, you will be in or out of the project will depends on your manager's feedback. The curve they draw, must layoff 2-3 people from the company.

Firing Process : You staffing partner will organize your meeting with people success team. They will give you 2 options ; termination, resignation. Ofcourse you will accept resignation with 2 month salary. Then same time you need to submit your ID card, laptops etc. Member from PS team will escort you till exit gate and book the taxi for you for your home.

Totals Layoffs : 1000 Approx including GM and Nitro

Forecast : Company doesn't have much projects in pipeline, specially for Java/J2EE/.Net etc technology. Everyone currently working in this company fighiting for their survival.

Bumped to a thread from @Ncgnn3g-19xjk for excellent info more folks should see.

@1Gmdk - amen, it can get really weird here. My two cents - if you can manage to get hired here, you will likely be able to do the same at ACN, DC, IBM GBS or whatever other large consulting group is out there. Sapient would be mu last choice, it's just unstable.

Disclaimer: 2 years at Sapient, left in 2014.

I'm currently working in Sapient and this post depicted the exact scenario of the company till few months back. The firing may have stopped temporarily but there is no plethora of projects coming to Sapient's way. It is always a danger in Sapient.

Project interviews is a total crappy approach. Sometimes they go upto 3 rounds which makes you question why were you hired at first place with so many promises.

I strongly recommend those joining Sapient to thoroughly research about your role, technology prospects and stability graph.

This is a company which can make your life really stressful.
