Absolutely career suicide.

Pros

Nice phone. If you managed to get a brand new one.

Cons

1. In general, it’s a career suicide for anyone who expects management consulting role. Capco is already well known as a body shopping firm in the industry now, even the client called Capco’s people “contractor” instead of “consultant”. Project assignment in Capco means filling any available vacancy at client with whoever is available on bench at cheap cost, and the job is never strategic. Consultant's career development is the least of the firm's concern (if there’s any). Also, vast majority of consultants works for the same client means client rotation is almost impossible. 2. People management. It is just a mess. Office politics, irregular salary payment schedule, incorrect leave balances, duplicated assignment, be prepared to look after your own record. 3. Recognition. It's extremely cliquey if you are seriously looking for it. Client's satisfaction was not even taken into account for job recognition. Performance review has nothing to do with client’s feedback, and depends only on your contribution on the happy hour events and how well you can get into the clique. 4. Co-workers and Management. Great people left (or were leaving). Rarely met professional people. Only big and empty talks by management.
