      Great beginnings; not a great opportunity today

      Pros

      Great experience for just starting out of school or growing an early career. Decent technology experience for a largely staff augmentation focused firm. Some of the great, original technical consultants (though not many) to learn from.

      Cons

      Many long hours and poor work-life balance - where you don't exactly share in the benefits received from the long hours. Unfortunately, the company is top-heavy so needs to grow out its base. That means promotion and career growth opportunities are limited. Leadership launches programs to foster technical leaders --- mostly because they don't at their true roots. Technical consultants are resources to be sold and work-horses to extend engagements until they grow into large, staff augmentation contracts where lower-cost analysts can be sold by the droves.

      Women Engineers Beware

      Pros

      Work/life balance is good if you have an easier client. Remote work if your client allows it

      Cons

      I hate that I’m having to post this review but I genuinely want to warn other women in computer science about working here. Many of us have tried to bring this up to CapTech over the years and nothing ever gets done so here it goes… Women make up 1.9% (1/52 directors and above) of CapTech’s SI (engineering) leadership. The people that decide your compensation and promotion are all men except HR. The SI leadership team involved in staffing you on projects is all men. There is definitely a “boys club” mentality within the engineering practice. Women never present at engineering all hands and the only leadership roles where women are represented in the practice are in community/culture and recruiting. Women developers have been bringing up the lack of diversity in leadership for over 5 years and nothing has changed. You will have to work 10x as hard to get a raise, promotion, or cool project here. You will consistently be asked to do things your male colleagues don’t have to: sending meeting invites, taking notes, planning events, etc. The company taunts its amazing DIB program but really it’s just meetings where people talk about their experiences and nothing ever gets done. Just message any girl developer from this company on linkedin and we will tell you the truth!

      Thank you for taking the time to leave a review, although I will admit that this is both sad to hear and tough to digest. I encourage you to reach out to myself or any member of the HR team, as we'd like to better understand this from your point of view. In response to the concerns you laid out, I agree that we lack female representation at the top leadership levels of our technical teams, but I also recognize that this is not something that can be solved overnight. As I look back over the last 5 years at CapTech, I am so excited by and proud of the progress we have made in helping strong, technically oriented women advance within the company. We currently have a solid pipeline of female talent who are rapidly emerging as top technical leaders. Looking out over the next 5-7 years, we have several women leaders who will gain the necessary experience to move into company-wide leadership roles. At the present time, I see them filling some of our more "people oriented" leadership roles - this is a positive start as these roles provide great insight into our operations and can lead to broader opportunities. Our SI practice has been a leader in soliciting volunteers and having an application process when leadership vacancies occur, and everyone is invited and welcome to apply. I agree we have work to do to continue to bolster ALL of our strong emerging technical leaders, and I am very optimistic that our current leadership team is dedicated to helping give everyone new, challenging projects that best support our clients and our company. From where I sit, I am seeing great progress to date and momentum for the future. Again, I'd love to connect. -Katy Apostolides, Managing Director - HR

      Pros

      There are some very good people who work at CapTech - intelligent, trusted mentors, well meaning. I learned an absolute ton while working there, and I am extremely grateful for some of the stretch roles I was put into. On a whole I had great clients that I genuinely enjoyed working with.

      Cons

      The leadership at CapTech is inept at best, toxic at worst. Staffing is very short sighted, and they seem to be in a mindset of just throwing bodies at things. Career growth is an absolute mess. Promotion standards are extremely inconsistent, and can depend a lot on who your coach is. Your performance and internal contributions don't matter much if leadership just doesn't like you (for whatever reason). Women, be prepared to be constantly smiling and upbeat. This is the only way the male leadership will find you even minimally worthy. You'll have to work 10x as hard anyway. Please don't bring your authentic self to work, it will hurt you. They love to reward toxicity, as evidenced by someone getting a large promotion while under HR investigation for bullying. HR is generally untrustworthy and will tell lies about employees to leadership.

      It is very disheartening to read this review. I agree that we have fabulous people at CapTech, and I also agree that they are genuine, look out for everyone's best interest and are extremely collaborative and willing to share their knowledge. The rest of your comments are surprising. I see you are no longer with CapTech, and I wish I could have had the opportunity to speak with you prior to your departure so I could better understand your experience. As I look at many of our talent management activities (e.g. staffing, promotion, recognition), I am extremely proud of the structures and processes that have been established over the last few years. Our workplace flexibility, while a wonderful employee benefit, has definitely provided our staffing team with additional challenges as they work to best match individuals with our clients' needs. Everyone is encouraged to bring their true self to work, and there are policies in place to support, empower and protect our employees' ability to do just that. I am disappointed to hear that an employee (whether past or present) doesn't feel that way - we continually receive feedback that our leaders are optimistic, genuine, encouraging and go out of their way to find the good/strengths in each of our people. While we wish that you had departed on a different note, we appreciate the time and energy you gave to our clients and our teams. We hope that your new adventure is a better fit. -Katy Apostolides, Managing Director - HR
