Capco reviews

Thanks for your feedback. We appreciate hearing from our employees and continually look for ways to enhance the Capco experience for all of our people. One of the great advantages of a career in consulting is the ability to work on different client projects and obtain broad exposure. While we recognise at times that every role may not be an exact match for longer-term career interests, we always aim to work closely with our employees and their coaches to ensure that we are providing challenging and rewarding opportunities. Something which is a fundamental part of our resourcing model and our culture. Our leadership team also place a strong focus on this, regularly reviewing the pipeline of work to ensure that it aligns with the needs and aspirations of our people. From a recruitment stand-point, all individuals involved in the recruitment process undergo training to ensure that we are communicating the right messages at all time. As a firm, it serves no interest to bring employees on-board under false pretences and we strive to ensure that what we communicate throughout the hiring process translates into the day to day experience of a Capco consultant. We strive to provide a working environment where employees feel supported, as well as an inclusive environment where people can succeed regardless of their background or experience. Our #BeYourselfAtWork movement is one example of our work in this area. We’re sorry to hear about your experience - we are committed to providing world-class opportunities for our people and would be happy to speak with you about your experiences at Capco.

This feedback is disappointing and to at least some degree, unfair. Capco is a values-led organisation and we expect values-led behaviour from our Partners and leaders. We do not create an overly ‘rosy’ picture of the firm, nor do we expect people to work in a role that they have not accepted. To do so would not result in the committed and engaged workforce we require to deliver a high service to our clients. If we did engage in this activity, it would be reflected in abnormal levels of turnover as unhappy staff would have left our firm, which is not the case. Claims that we are a ’body shop’ are also unsubstantiated. Capco in India has had significant and consistent growth in the last 3 years and has expanded capabilities in several areas across Business and Digital Transformation working with Global and Regional Banks. Our strategy has been to invest heavily in the development, skills and capability of our people in the functional areas as well as new technologies. As a result we are able to offer a broader range of roles and engagements than we have ever had in the past. Under no circumstances do we make an offer and then rescind it during notice. A 3-month notice period is market standard and common in the industry. It is applied uniformly across all levels and employees. Of course employees are paid the rate that they are promised. If they were not we would lose staff and face legal challenge. We do not. As other feedback on this site testifies, we pay in advance of market at all levels for our best performers and our feedback on salary levels more generally is very strong. Finally we look to give potential recruits a good experience and introduction to Capco and in the vast majority of cases we succeed. That said, we acknowledge that we can always improve and one of the reasons we engage so readily with Glassdoor is our desire to obtain and respond to feedback. To post interviews ourselves would simply give a picture of the business we were unable to sustain and again contribute to high turnover. It would not be in line with our values-led culture nor would it make sense for our business and we do not do it. If you are genuinely looking to give us substantiated feedback so that we can improve our processes for others and when you have some proper suggestions for how we might do this, we would love to hear from you.
