Pros

Working in CAPCO Bangalore from last 4 years, good place to work because - salaries are good, even useless resources are getting good salaries - work is good, earlier was MUREX shop but now other work in Retail banking space for PM,PMO, Good project managers. - not a bad company for Java and microsoft technology, although small but still company takes good care of such people either by compensating them or by allowing them to move to other skills. - Very friendly to employees, lots of parties - Not a company for those who want to have easy life, who can hide behind and continue to survive for years like in large IT services firms such as Infosys, wipro, TCS. - Any person who want to explore and experiment with minimum intervention, good place to be in. - fruits a day - there are good number of people who are >5 years in firm, which means it knows how to take care of good performers - Good murex trainings - laptops to everyone even freshers, sim card to everyone, data dongle to good number of people(pm approves though but everyone gets it) - personalized cabs for chosen few, luck guys - separate program to nurture freshers and groom them, never seen in big firms such a focus and investment.

Cons

- need to be more strict in handling non performers - travels are less, management to find how to get travels opportunities for its employees - more trainings to employees - stronger HR team - find good resources who are not here for money but for contribution, end of the day it is still a small firm who need only talent not average performers - compensate your great performers, you are treating them like avgerage performers, even rewarding well avg performers. - do more clean up - more friendly finance team - realize people that if you pay, you means business. - more stronger sr management and project managers, very less credible and good managers today, hardly 2-3.

Poor benefits package - head to the Big 4

Pros

The UK is still a good business and a good place to grow your career and progress quickly. It's just no longer a great company which is once was. Training seems to be being rolled out in a better way with more focus on external training which is long awaited Interesting clients, lots of events, working in big teams rather than siloed on small roles.

Cons

Policies are really really behind the market, salaries may be on par with industry but people are not fooled so easily. HOLIDAY: Holiday is also less than at other comparable firms, Accenture, Deloitte etc and they have also stopped allowing holiday carryover etc MATERNITY: Particularly if you are female and planning a family at some point go to the big 4. Capco maternity was effectively statutory and from experience the flexi working policies just aren't geared up for 1/2 + children. Women - AVOID! OTHER The company is growing significantly, but in a bit of a bums on seats way. The focus is not to try and make money in any way other than this, which is outdated as an approach A lot going on at the moment with the management restructure at the top so its a waiting game to see how things turn out. The old management has been walked out of the building and the new management are seemingly replicating the same practices they took issue with. The irony is its just a different clique with less charismatic management.

Thank you for your feedback and suggestions for improvement. We’re pleased that our recent focus on learning has been impactful across the workforce. The refresh of tools, offerings and structure were designed and launched with an emphasis on engaging solutions that empowered our employees, our business and our company. Our goal is to help people work smarter, grow faster and learn more often. As such, we’re happy that careers are progressing and teams are better able to collaborate! Similarly to our latest enhancements around learning and development, we regularly review the market when establishing, and improving, our benefit offerings. For example, our maternity package significantly exceeds statutory and we also have a number of additional benefits available to support working parents. I’m happy to talk you through these benefits if you would find that helpful. As always, we welcome employee ideas – feel free to reach out to HC with suggestions and recommendations! Thank you.
