Pros

I worked at capco for 9 months and there are some really great people who work there.

Cons

Bullying culture is why I left and the manager is now being promoted. Culture is cliquey and unless you are a straight white male very hard to get on. Non diverse workplace. Unless you like reg projects avoid. I had the worst working experience after 20 years in the finance industry. It is a body shop for one large bank in Scotland, massive turn over of staff. Terrible experience

Pros

Quick promotion if you play the politics Great structute if the business is modelled as resource aug type work. Some clever and talented people but stuck in the wrong career slowing roles.

Cons

Poor reputation for pure consulting work. Have had several senior clients ask me about Capco's bodyshop stature. They struggle to see the consulting value proposition but clearly see the cheaper (than market) resource aug vp - what's called as ChangeSourcing. Massive focus on billing and resource filling rather than competing for true 'forming future' type engagements. Lots of lone wolves staffed for months, even years on the same resource aug projects - where the most popular role is being a pmo . Hardly a consultative case focused model. Several people leaving firm. Probably for reasons above. Performance management process is worst I've seen in multi national firms. Surprised heads have not rolled in human resources. Not positive on it's reputation in the market for consulting.
