Capco Response
4y
We are disappointed to read your comments, particularly around work load and lack of mobility as we encourage employees to reach out to their Coach, Manager, senior leader or HR Business Partner if they need additional guidance or support at any time. At junior levels in particular, we recognize the importance of mobility and gaining a breadth of experience. We also strongly encourage all employees to learn about our different business areas (domains and capabilities) whether through internal events or working on projects in different areas. On compensation, these are reviewed regularly to ensure that they are in line with the market and exceed the market for exceptional performance. Capco also holds two promotion cycles per year meaning there are regular opportunities for people to progress and for the firm to recognize performance at the next level. This has continued regardless of the pandemic.

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.
