Pros

I have been at Capco for a few months now, and it is a dynamic environment where I feel that I can make a difference right away. The company has a engaged, passionate workforce, and consists of smart people who are committed to delivering excellent work. At the same time, the culture is less corporate than many professional services or financial services firms. The company has a flat hierarchy, and you are judged on what and how you deliver. It has been an interesting and engaging work experience so far, and as we grow, I feel that employees will benefit from having even greater opportunities to add value and make change.

Cons

Like many professional services firms, Capco can do better in regards to work/life balance.

You get paid on time. Get to know banking AML. You will be working every minute during office hour. Nice.

Cons

Factory-like brainless work. Impossible to get promotion coz there are 100 guys doing the same job as you do. Unlimited OT

While we are disappointed by your review, we would like to thank you for your feedback. Capco operates as a true meritocracy – people are reviewed for promotion every 6 months, and can be promoted quickly based on their talent and ability. We have a robust performance management process alongside a coaching network to ensure that each individual is fairly represented in a roundtable process and consideration is given to individual achievements. The process also enables us to benchmark individuals against their peers to ensure a fair assessment. Regarding work life balance, while consulting is not a 9-5 job in any professional services organization, we do actively promote this. If employees are asked to work longer hours or overtime, the project managers work with their team members to ensure they are supported to manage a balanced workload. Based on your comments, we are sorry to hear that you did not experience this. We do encourage all employees to raise any specific issues or concerns as they arise through one of the many support channels we have in place including HR, Coaches, Managers and Partners. Employees can also reach out to our Global HR Director, Richard Gartside directly with any suggestions for improvements.
