Pros

Flexibility, some people and management is good and WFH

Cons

Where do I start? -They give random projects to people -They hire people on requirment basis urgently and then lay them off within 6 months - Sudden layoff - bench periods are crazy - Partiality towards existing employees of the firm - This company is collapsing and the projects are very short term - They are heavily dependent on HSBC as their client. If projects go from HSBC then Capco is doomed. - They layoff people every dec and it's become a norm - Don't fall for positive reviews as they are all forcefully taken by HR - When people get calls from Capco they do not even want to join the company out of fear of layoffs. - Hikes are non existent and some promises while hiring are not kept - HR only does sweet talk

Pros

Varied client work — Different clients and project types, which keeps things interesting. Real project mobility — You can move between projects when you advocate for yourself (within reason). Approachable leadership — Senior leaders are open to conversations if you reach out. Good development resources — Plenty of training and growth opportunities if you take advantage of them. Strong teams — Colleagues are smart, capable, and great to work with. Entrepreneurial environment — New ideas are encouraged, and there’s room to take initiative.

Cons

Long hours vary by project — Like most any professional job, some engagements require extended hours for prolonged periods, but work–life balance really depends on the client and team. Additional internal responsibilities — Depending on level, there can be a significant amount of firm‑support work outside of client delivery. Domain alignment not guaranteed — You may not always be staffed on projects that match your domain expertise. Coaching alignment constraints — Coaching relationships are tied to domain, which limits flexibility in choosing formal mentors. Long engagements (sometimes) — Some projects run for long durations or through multiple extensions. It can provides stability but may reduce variety in client and project experience depending on what you’re looking for.
