Capco Response
3y
We are disappointed to read your comments on our firm. Our leadership team cares deeply about our people and as a responsible business, we take a considered approach to hiring based on client demand and the market. The current demand for consulting services has moderated somewhat due to the current economic climate. However, Capco continues to have a wide portfolio of clients and projects. Like many businesses at this time, we are taking steps to ensure the future success of Capco, and as a result, a very limited number of employee who have been in the bench for a prolonged period of time have left the business. Contrary to your comments, we have an experienced leadership team in India, many of whom have a long tenure at Capco- and who have presided over record levels of growth in Capco India. As a global business, our regional leaders collaborate together and our India leadership team is working on projects with more regions than ever before. Our HR team is also committed to providing outstanding support to our people and has played a pivotal role in the recruitment, onboarding and development of our people during the unprecedented growth in headcount we’ve seen since 2020.

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.
