Pros

1) Working from home - thank god! 2) Getting paid on time (except for delayed bonuses) 3) Some interesting colleagues

Cons

Chris Ford continues to issue layoffs. He's over compensating for problems caused by fairly young, inexperienced management as they "try" to attempt to navigate the global crisis against more competitive and mature Consulting firms like CGI, Deloitte. Financial and project targets can still be hit with both flat and multi-level hierarchies - that's not the issue - it's the inexperienced management! Last year Chris gave his employees a false sense of security about the layoff situation (saying layoffs wouldn't happen) at a town hall, and soon layoffs appeared. Obviously, layoffs can be executed at any time, but why make useless remarks like that Chris?? HR could probably use some reshuffling too. While they are obviously there to defend the company (and not its employees), a lot of their responses on here have so many mischaracterizations, and seem antagonizing to their employees. Obviously no one will go to HR to get help if something is wrong. Admit your mistakes, take the higher road. I could go on and on, but since I'll be departing soon, I'll end it there.

Capco Response
5y
We are disappointed to read your comments and that you chose to raise this feedback as you leave the firm, given the range of channels that are in place to collect feedback so we can make improvements. The COVID-19 pandemic has presented a challenging climate for businesses, however, at Capco we have not delayed promotions or compensation reviews. On occasion where we have had to review our workforce, we have managed these changes in a way that has minimized the impact, redeployed wherever possible and supported with market competitive compensation. The firm has not undertaken any major job reduction programs in response to the pandemic, but some roles were unsustainable as our clients withdrew funding. This may explain the confusion but, in the few cases we have managed, we have done this sensitively and consulted closely with those affected. In line with Chris’ commitment, the firm has largely safeguarded employment and opportunities. The comments on HR are unfair. The team has been at the sharp end of responding to the pandemic and as well as supporting the move to remote working with an on-line development curriculum, for example, they have also launched a range of measures to ensure that employees feel connected and can respond to the new world. This includes measures to support those leading virtual teams, ongoing communications and engagement initiatives. The team is committed to maintaining this support and remain available if any employee requires additional help.

Decent pay, projects aren't hard at all, pretty easy going,

Cons

Very political, not a good enough reputation in the market, pay range doesn't make sense at all, extremely annoying to get promoted within the company.
