Pros

The people and culture are great! The work is challenging and rewarding. Loved the work schedule - Mon - Thurs (4 - 10s).

Cons

The pay was low but I guess was comparable for the area. The work station was constantly changing which caused disruption in getting work done.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We are delighted to hear that you found the work challenging and rewarding - Capco's sole focus on the financial services industry, culture of meritocracy and lack of hierarchy affords our people unrivaled access to leadership, interesting and challenging roles and opportunities to progress quickly based on performance. We are disappointed to hear that you found the pay low, since Capco regularly undertakes compensation reviews to ensure that these are competitive in line with our competitors. We also aim to provide positive work environments reflected by our Capco offices, however, we appreciate that many of our people are not always able to work from our offices due to the nature of consulting. Where possible, we encourage our people to come "back to base" whenever possible for specific events or to catch up with colleagues.

Pros

Capco consulting offers competitive salaries and a group of younger consultants who are fun to work with. I like the smaller consulting atmosphere because it allows you to have more visibility with upper level management. The bonus pay for hours billed is fairly lucrative and fair compared to some other consulting firms.

Cons

While the company use to have several different project opportunities, now all of our opportunities have recently been limited to a few clients. This is because some of our partners have a difficult time selling new work at new clients. One of the largest projects on one of our clients staffs a lot of Capco employees, and the management on the project is very hostile. Group think, discrimination, and defensiveness rule the day and strife open communication and insight from the rest of the team members. Due to this, the project turnover rate is very high, but project managers' aloof attitude makes them appear like they do not care to lose people.

Thank you for your feedback. At Capco, our people are our priority and we are disappointed to hear about your experience. We are committed to ensuring that all our people can be themselves at work and encourage a collaborative and inclusive work environment. Similarly integrity is one of our core values and something we look to reflect in all our behaviors and interaction with both clients and people. Your feedback suggests that we may have fallen short of our high standards in these areas and we are disappointed to learn that and also disappointed that we have not had the chance to respond. If you haven’t already done so, then we would strongly encourage you to speak with your HR Business Partner and/or Counselor regarding your specific concerns so that these can be addressed. You may also wish to contact our global HR Director, Richard Gartside directly, who would be happy to discuss and address your concerns.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. As per your review, one of the things we hear time and again about Capco is how our people make the firm. Consulting is a people business and we pride ourselves on our unique culture at Capco which is brought to life through our people. It's disappointing to hear that you find the environment competitive and isolating at times. There are lots of opportunities to get involved at Capco, even when working remotely. Please reach out to your Coach or HR team if you require further support.
