Pros

Some good events, some good people, the odd good project

Cons

My advice to others is - grads go to Accenture/similar where they genuinely give you training and a decent brand on your CV (and more holiday) - and experienced hires, go somewhere smaller where your experience and domain knowledge can be used. Don't join on the promise of a particular type of work, it just doesn't happen. Ignore the bravado about being digital and edgy, nearly all projects are based in client site doing mundane project work, pmo and ba skills. It's not videos and customer experience work.

No major complaints - but every role has some client-driven variability which comes with consulting

Pros

Capco has a friendly culture where people like to win together. A solid meritocracy that is expertise focused, and growth oriented with approachable leaders and plenty of opportunities for advancement.

Cons

Employees should be self-motivated (which for me is a plus), but being a smaller company it does lack clear and standard documentation routines. There is no one-size fits all career map, which allows self-starters to succeed and rise quickly in the organization.
