Capco Employee Reviews & Ratings

1. You become eligible for Promotions at 2 years 2. HR & Admin literally never respond 3. Appraisals are dismal 4. No onsite opportunities

some times projects are not as much fun and extreme focus on billability to pay the bills

If you’re unfamiliar with consulting you will get eaten alive and spit back out. The whole premise of the job is to be as marketable as possible to clients and if you’re not then best of luck but you will most likely not last long.

- Bonus and yearly hike are average. Your hike will still be better compared to your bonus. Bonus for a 4 rating can sometimes be 50 - 70k. This may be further impacted post Wipro take over of Capco. - Your experience here will depend largely on the client you are working for. Some established and mature accounts will give you generally good work stability and experience. Some other clients who are not known for great work culture will give you a bad experience. Account leads will also be a factor in terms of how your grievances are addressed. - Impact of Wipro takeover. Appraisal cycle has been changed from Jan to Dec to April to March. Bonus and hike payout will now be effective June.

A lot of these clients are investment banks, which imply a good amount of work, management tries their best to sell you to the clients and give you pressure, people are so fake, do not trust the good things they say about you or the clients, use your own judgement

ditto that which is in cons

Be good to get more support on commercial aspects

Limited career progression beyond a certain level

No security about jobs as you will not sure get project.

Layoffs Bad managers Cab facility Recently acquired by Wipro

Hard to plan ahead when working as a consultant.

None as such as of now

You are given basic compensation package

One might wait awhile for the perfect client opportunity

The presence of a good mentor (coach) can greatly impact your success. Choose one who supports you.

Certain support functions need to onboard stronger processes

Difficult promotion process and not diverse industries

Delivery is of no use unless you do community work and get attention plus get business

- Polish office has no idea how to develop their talents (at least those working remotely/business contract - no interest in feedback you provide to them - only interest is their short term benefit what will happen in future doesn't concern them at all. Also regarding client contracts - you should go fill a role we have, even though you are not interested and not a great fit - also we don't even have a good job description for it and we don't care about it) - Endless mess - There are set of rules (on boarding on client site, feedback, career development) that already function in other offices in the world but apparently in Poland you can't use what has been developed in other offices - all of the above is causing the good people to leave

Hard to get staffed on projects

A lot of the values you bring to the table remain unrecognized

No, cons everything is fine at capco

Boring projects, lengthy and arduous process to being promoted. Work is extremely boring

Pay could be higher for job title

Frequent lay offs, laid off an employee within 6 months of joining

- May not get to work on what you were hired for (depends on what projects need to be filled at any given moment)

If you want to specialise in a particular area, it can be difficult to if there are no projects available in that area

They only care about upper management Clients drop you quick Horrible promotions Virtually no bonus

Attrition is high Reactively promote Despite what the website says, promotions are once a year even though you’re reviewed twice a year.

So far, I have only positive experiences.

Lack of benefits compared to competitors

Very limited client base and no location in chennai

Limited experience and commitment to design and creative output

Not given much at all to get your career going

Work depends on the project you get

Did not get much of compensations and benifits.

Not clear at which level I was being appointed

a lot to learn when it comes to financial services

Everything from WLB to your level of engagement depends on your projects.

Experience of Capco will be roll dependant. Some roles are extremely demanding.

Pay can be lower than expected

Bureaucracy, Sectarianism. Shxtty culture. This company has no direction and they are not knowing their position in the market. Fail to deliver effective outcome to their clients.

Honestly cannot think of a downside to working at Capco

The compensation was terrible here. Top management didn't bother to increase compensation when the workload grew. Instead, these horrible people looked for excuses not to increase it. It was ridiculous. Also, this place has the worst job security, as people can be fired anytime. Please avoid long-term planning here, as your plans might be fruitless.

Pay was low, but I could have negotiated for more.

Happiness was dependent on what contracts you were put on. Some were excellent and I felt I was able to do great work - others felt 'bitty'.

- Less travel opportunities due to nature of financial services industry in Canada

No career growth if you want to stay more thank 2 years

that i like cab service that i like

isolation if remote community work is unorganized pay is below expectations
