Pros

I loved working at this company initially, the work time was flexible, the people were awesome and the projects were fun.

Cons

Once I made senior I started to struggle. I didnt have as easy of a time lining up projects and a lot more of the work was staff aug. I got really burnt out and found it hard to try out other areas of consulting because there wasnt a lot of learning opportunities or accounts where you could grow. The year I got laid off they finally added some more tools for professional development but it was hard to understand how watching a 20 min youtube clip on AI would then help convince a partner to let me in on a project that involves AI. I didnt really see the connect there. I think the last year I was super burnt out and honestly felt stuck. Should have left sooner.

Pros

I have 18 years of banking experience in senior positions, and even though I took a pay cut when I moved to Capco as a Senior Consultant, I don’t regret it one bit. Capco has been an excellent opportunity for me to learn new methodologies and expand my consulting skills, especially given my background in the industry. For anyone coming from a strong industry background, Capco provides a great platform to transition into consulting and apply your expertise in new and exciting ways. The team and leadership are incredibly supportive, and I feel humbled by the trust they’ve placed in me. What stands out the most is the support from the client project managers at Capco—they are encouraging and genuinely invested in my development. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed working with clients and learning from the talented team around me. If you're looking for a place that offers great learning opportunities, a collaborative environment, and the chance to work with some really talented people, Capco is a great choice!

Cons

A potential area for consideration is the compensation structure. While Capco provides excellent growth opportunities, it might be beneficial to review the pay scale, especially for consultants who bring significant industry experience. Offering more competitive compensation could help ease the transition for those moving from senior roles and ensure that Capco continues to attract and retain top talent.

Pros

Company phone and generous annual leave.

Cons

No members of the APAC management team have local market ties; they are all from outside the region. Leadership intends to evolve the firm from a staffing agency for HSBC into a true consulting firm. The banking and wealth management endeavor was a complete failure. It continues to be an HSBC body shop after 3 years. An insurance partner was hired to aid their expansion into the insurance industry. This individual was supposed to be well-connected with Hong Kong’s main insurance companies. A year on and still without any significant wins in the insurance domain. Advancement and assignments depend entirely on connections and mentorship, not merit. Some people, despite being on bench for over a year, still received promotions. Wipro’s 2023 annual report shows APAC had approximately a US$15 million loss. Wipro needs a new APAC management team.

We are disappointed to read your perspective of Capco. Our leadership team has deep industry and consulting expertise and is committed to delivering the best service to our clients, as well as diversifying our client portfolio. Colleagues can read about our recent wins at several clients in the December leadership newsletter, and we also provide regular updates in our quarterly Town Halls. On the recent Wipro All Hands call, Capco APAC and Middle East was also given a special mention in recognition of the achievements and potential in the region. Contrary to your comments, we have a robust performance assessment process which considers individual performance and feedback from different stakeholders. Individual performance is also discussed within a roundtable setting to ensure that everyone receives a fair assessment. If any employee would like additional support with career development at Capco, there are lots of resources available on CapcoHub or alternatively, they can reach out to their Coach or HR Business Partner to discuss.
