Capco Response
8y
Thank you for taking the time to leave some feedback. We are delighted that you are enjoying many of the benefits Capco has to offer including a wide variety of learning and development opportunities, open access to the management team due to Capco's non-hierarchical structure and support networks including coaches, peer communities and interest groups. It's difficult to respond fully to your comments without understanding your specific concerns, however, diversity is very important to us at Capco, and we look to provide opportunities for both men and women to advance their careers at Capco in the DC area as well as across the firm. Women have comprised around 50% of our Associate class over the past two years, and we continue to look for ways to promote the advancement of women at the firm. We sponsor several events that celebrate and highlight women, including International Women’s Day, Women’s Panels and the Women’s Bond Club. If you have any specific concerns you would like to raise relating to this or have suggestions for other things we can do in this space, please reach out to the North America HR Lead, Mary Keller who will be happy to discuss with you. Thank you for your continued contribution to the Capco team!

Pros

Varied client work — Different clients and project types, which keeps things interesting. Real project mobility — You can move between projects when you advocate for yourself (within reason). Approachable leadership — Senior leaders are open to conversations if you reach out. Good development resources — Plenty of training and growth opportunities if you take advantage of them. Strong teams — Colleagues are smart, capable, and great to work with. Entrepreneurial environment — New ideas are encouraged, and there’s room to take initiative.

Cons

Long hours vary by project — Like most any professional job, some engagements require extended hours for prolonged periods, but work–life balance really depends on the client and team. Additional internal responsibilities — Depending on level, there can be a significant amount of firm‑support work outside of client delivery. Domain alignment not guaranteed — You may not always be staffed on projects that match your domain expertise. Coaching alignment constraints — Coaching relationships are tied to domain, which limits flexibility in choosing formal mentors. Long engagements (sometimes) — Some projects run for long durations or through multiple extensions. It can provides stability but may reduce variety in client and project experience depending on what you’re looking for.
