Capgemini layoff

Hi, I have been on bench in Capgemini USA for a month. HR intimated friday is my last day in org. Will they give any severance package ? I have been with the firm for a year.

Doesn't the WARN act apply here, 60 days notice or severance?

Rocket Central guddivadu OP Apr 5, 2023

This is my first time working for consulting company. No idea, whether WARN act applies here.

If company employs more than 100 people and at least laid off 50, the. It applies https://www.dol.gov/general/topic/termination/plantclosings

They are a consulting firm right? I doubt they give packages for people employed for such a short time.

Severance usually is based on tenure. They might be nice and give something for less than a year

Client? Location? Never heard Capgemini doing layoffs in states

Capgemini WhatsNewIn Apr 6, 2023

They have started doing it from this month. Is little tricky. They kept people on common pool for 30 days and then layoff with 15 day’s notice. Total 45 days without project.

Talking about states or India?

Capgemini cgshinchan Apr 6, 2023

Laid off for being in bench for just 1 month? That is harsh.

Had a friend who was laid off last week and had been on the bench for the last 3 months. He got severance of a month's pay

I worked for Capgemini for 9 years. I was on bench for 2 months and I got laid off. I got an eight week severance package

Capgemini cgshinchan May 25, 2023

So brutal. Sorry about that. Did you bag a new role by now?

Capgemini pXJN50 May 26, 2023

Yes I did.

Capgemini tulipz123 Apr 16, 2023

Worked for Capgemini for ~3.5 years here and got laid off as well, but I haven’t received my severance pay yet. I was told that they will hand out the pay within 60 days from my last day of employment, which is kinda ridiculously long…

Capgemini cgshinchan May 25, 2023

Did you get it till now? You should email the HR and tell them you'll put a formal complaint or a case against them.

Capgemini hbt23 May 25, 2023

Capgemini pXJN50 May 26, 2023

Sickening company . Absolutely horrible.
