Lacks purpose and weak culture

Pros

Compensation can be high No travel required in certain markets Get exposure to the financial industry

Cons

Capco struggles is defining its purpose and creating a strong culture. Many people there do not have a sense of loyalty to the firm nor are they excited about Capco. In some markets, especially DC, Capco's sole business is tethered to a single account and you will essentially function as an employee of the client. That situation will not change because the partners don't seem to want to invest into growth elsewhere and seem comfortable in the arrangement. I would only join Capco if you are unhappy with your current compensation... but realize you're taking a huge risk.

Thank you for your positive comments on our market competitive compensation and benefits and our breadth of exposure to clients in the financial services industry. Capco has chosen to differentiate by way of our focus on financial services. Our consultants at all levels work with a range of market-leading clients in FS alongside seasoned professionals and subject matter experts with a wide range of experience in the sector. Diversification of our client portfolio is a key component of Capco’s strategy for growth. While continuing to serve our foundational clients in locations like DC, we are investing in both extending the range of services we offer, particularly in Digital innovation, and breaking into new clients and markets. We have recently announced a significant restructure of our organizational model in the U.S. to support this objective. A more integrated U.S. business under a common leadership team will enable us to increase collaboration across the region and optimize the deployment of talent in our clients and the market. Our new business model will enable us to better leverage our domains, offerings, and people across the entire U.S. market. We will be able to offer more holistic, innovative and leading edge solutions to clients and more opportunities for career development and progression to our people.

Pros

If you want to be in consulting and remain local to NY, there are many opportunities for that

Cons

Not much of a meritocracy. Employees are expected to participate in social events and be seen rather than focus solely on the work.
