Pros

- Good culture and really nice people - Diversity - Flat hierarchy (you can approach anyone) - Office open days with free food and beverages

Cons

- Most projects are mundane, unless you want to be a glorified scrum master - You cant get a significant pay increase without being promoted - Promotions are based on internal politics and personal brand. A really happy client will not translate into a promotion. - Bonuses are really low and are not worth the extra time spent doing "community work" - Laptops and office monitors are from the stone-age. - HR is non-existent - High turnover of top talent

Thank you for your review and we are pleased to hear that you enjoy many aspects of working at Capco. We strongly recommend that you reach out to the Resourcing team or a member of the Leadership team to discuss the project opportunities which are available to you. As presented at the recent Town Hall, there is a wide variety of interesting work available across a portfolio of clients. Promotions are based on evidence of sustained performance at the next level alongside a number of other factors. Performance reviews take into account feedback from a variety of stakeholders to ensure a fair process. As we approach the year-end review process, we would encourage you to take advantage of any HR briefing sessions or reach out directly to learn more about the process. Likewise if you wish to discuss the technology available in the office, please reach out to the IT team or a member of the Facilities team.

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.
