Pros

Pay Not really much pro

Cons

Boys club and cliques so if you are part of that group you can get away with average performance. Some people can be rude and easily you feel like an outsider.

Pros

1. Salary on the higher end in the market 2. Unlimited vacation 3. Unlimited sick days and WFH 4. Good clients and networking possibilities/opportunities 5. Parties and fun, a lot of young crowd

Cons

1. This is not a consulting firm, this is a staff augmentation work. 2. Work culture is very undergrad style. Not a mature behaviour even among the senior management 3. Biggest issue is that they will downsize if they don't have projects like how they did in March-April 2020. They will hire like crazy when they expect projects and downsize when they feel like to maintain revenue targets. 4. The CEO for Canada said openly in virtual town hall that there wont be any lay-offs. BUT they already had a list of people they want to let go and were planning the lay off which they completed by April 2020 blaming on COVID -19. 5. Some people who were let go had just joined in October-December 2019 and they had not had any chance to perform or network and they were let go so easily in March-April 2020. You are just a number to them - if they can earn margin by placing you on a project, they will keep you else you are on your own. 6. They are not very respectful or transparent.

Thank you for the positive feedback on the firm and for acknowledging Capco’s competitive compensation positioning. We give our employees a high degree of flexibility and empowerment and provide high quality work in an open and inclusive culture. The feedback on our offering is overwhelmingly positive as Glassdoor reviews confirm. This explains our disappointment with some of the other feedback you have listed in your feedback. We are always looking for feedback from our people on how we can improve the experience at Capco, but it is also important this is fair and accurate. Like all consulting firms, Capco has a range of work within its portfolio, including some more tactical work but to claim this is a significant component of our business in Canada is misleading. Capco offers a wide variety of management and technology consulting projects in, amongst others, Business and Digital Transformation, Change Management, IT implementation and solution and system design.

Pros

No Pros. Just think twice before you take the offer. You will be useless as soon as you are off the project and management cant get any new business

Cons

New Management hired is least bothered and not at all capable of gaining any new business/projects. They are just busy in laying off the people who have served the company to best. Does not look like that the management want to run the company. But looks like they want to close down the company.

Far from looking to close the Company, all leaders at Capco are working very hard to protect the firm and our people in the face of a difficult global crisis. Our leaders remain committed to protecting the firm by identifying business development opportunities and winning new work, even where a market is in lock-down. We also remain committed to following the advice, guidance and practices of the WHO, Governments and health authorities to protect the welfare of our people. So far, we have used our rapid response to the crisis and new way of remote working to demonstrate our capacity to clients and help them manage their businesses. We have been very clear that that the firm remains open for business and committed to working in close partnership with clients so they achieve their goals. We can provide the skills and capabilities necessary to achieve objectives and adopt working practices and approaches that mirror their own. Right across the firm we are focused on securing the future of Capco and protecting our people and we ask all staff to join us in these efforts and contribute to our success. Now more than ever is the time to embrace our inclusive culture, get involved and work together.
