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

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.
