CapTech reviews

Everyone is really just trying to hold things together. After Sr. Consultant, if you ever want to be promoted you have work on internal initiatives, network at events and excel on the client billable work. Sounds simple enough, but what ends up happening is things get pushed off to someone lower level, you cut corners with the client to complete proposals or you burn out. Networking events that involve alcohol sounds great, but anyone with kids or other obligations feel left out of the "in crowd". Killing it on projects is simply not enough. Two CEOs is redundant... especially when you layoff staff and are closing offices. Not sure what the executive leadership do once they are promoted to that level other than speak at events/ internal meetings and keep staff motivated. Very little diversity, especially the higher up the chain. There have been efforts, but more lip service and awareness than any actual change. A lot of my peers and colleagues in my service offering have left for other opportunities because of better salary, these secret layoffs or burn out . Right now it seems like everybody for themselves environment.

-Most of the Account Managers I worked with across many clients had horrible communication/time management skills. I was literally forgotten and ignored on a few projects. -You needed to network at corporate events and happy hours in order to get on better contracts and work on interesting projects. I was told this by my coach the first month I started at CapTech. -The staff that handles the Bench gate keeps all the opportunities. From junior consultants to upper management, you don't get a say in where and what you do. You might be the best .NET programmer who is Azure Certified, but if they determine you need to work on a on-prem wordpress site, that's what you are doing. If you are lucky (see comment above) you might have made an impression on a director at happy hour and they will snatch you up on their team before the bench team gets a hold of you. -This was hands down the most Caucasian company I've ever worked at. I know they are trying to fix this but why has this still a problem in 2021? -Promotions involve being on an internal project with high visibility. They have zero to do with how well you produce for your client. -The staff augmentation work is ridiculously high. If you are a seasoned I.T. professional looking for that next opportunity with interesting projects, CapTech is not for you. The business model works well for new college hires who are looking for experience.
