Pros

Capco is one of the few firms where one can freely learn, think, delivery and grow. Nowhere else does a firm offer this kind of fluidity, where you can literally visit with any Partner to share ideas as one develops new ideas. Projects are challenging, clients are well-known, and the people are amazing. Capco encourages CSR, education, and community events as part of a well-balanced consulting lifestyle. Benefits are generous and flexible as well, fitting people with different needs.

Cons

Corporate structure is going through a period of flux. It would be ideal to see and hear what the next stages look like in terms of the overall strategic growth trajectory. Change is good, of course.

Pros

Great reputation of FIS in the banking world. My manager really helped me in my professional and personal development. The location is nice (Eiffel tower)but small office for the size of the office

Cons

If you don’t like your project it can be very difficult to change. Very few clients too so you can be stuck at one for so long. No document with the amount of your bonus so no transparency and they try to screw you and not pay you what you earned if you resign, only consultancy firm that I have seen where they split the bonus payment in two as a “retention bonus” for even lower level employees. Keep that in mind because this was not told during salary discussions at my interview. Few local trainings, internal trainings are basic and you can find same information on Wikipedia. If you want a good raise pretend you are about to leave and they will give you something otherwise raises are based on who is liked best by the head clique. Few internal events (a couple of sushi events). the CE here is a joke, no benefits at all. Management is super cheap they try to make the CE pay for things that should be covered by them. I think they have finance problems because it is getting worse and worse. Super rigid IT processes. Support are a nice team but they you can tell that they are constantly under water and sometimes your requests take some time to be treated. HR polices are not fairly applied across the board. Even things like vacation approvals are based on who is well liked. They also do not help resolve employee problems at all. HR has been in need of major overhaul since years but management does not listen to employee feedback. You have very little input regarding you future project. Often projects are understaffed and over promised to client and then everyone suffers and does rush work. Hiring more IT profiles so not really a management consultancy firm anymore. Bad bench management, try to avoid being on it. Lots of resignations lately, especially for partners so we need to see how things will go on. No external marketing, few people know Capco in Paris except for initiated. Pretend to be international firm, but few people are able to go to work in other countries.

Pros

Very big on technology. Very big on spending.

Cons

Doesn't match their consultants to the right roles. Managers are either too relaxed or too uptight. No medium. Managers don't represent or stand up for the consultants on their team.
