Pros

Nice offices, focus on FS, better gender mix than other consultancies

Cons

- Pure bodyshop - A management dominated by white, locally-minded people who marry each other (yes!) who think the pinacle of consulting is replicating Accenture - clique culture - empty and grandiose statements ("defining the future of finance") - sounds very "humble" indeed

Pros

Good knowledgeable colleagues to work with from whom one can learn a lot. Exposure to financial markets and other areas of management consulting practice. Helps younger grads build up experience

Cons

Capco (at least the Toronto) office has not done a good sales job and as a consequence they downsize quickly to remain competitive in meeting their numbers for the parent company (FIS). This has caused friction amongst the practice leads who need a healthy bench to sustain good projects but it seems Capco is being ignored by the Canadian banks, Steer clear until the Toronto office fixes this issue and they gain the proejectst they need to remain viable. TD, the largest Capco Toronto client has not given much business back to Capco Toronto and this is what has impacted this company. I know many good people who have been downsized recently or left as dead-end banking jobs were not what we signed up for. Suggest go elsewhere where you get more exposure and more training to help in career progression.
