Senior consultant
Good culture, lots of young passionate people Variety of projects, easy to get involved throughout the company Nice offices with amenities Partners and leadership are accessible and invest in mentorship/ L&D
Can get stuck on long-term staff aug projects that are not interesting if you are not diligent about networking and getting the projects you want Disorganized processes for HR, sales, etc Somewhat low pay for consulting
-Clear and friendly interviews -Excellent and clear communication and onboarding -Pay and benefits very good -Staff very friendly and doesn’t feel overly corporate/stuffy
-Requirement to work in office 1/2 days a week hybrid (flexible though)
Senior business consultant
Supportive company Healthy organization culture Gifts
Politics Yearly appraisal are not good , as there's a default rating thing rolled out, you cannot even deny or reject the rating given by manager
Principal consultant
Genuinely some of the best people that I’ve worked with.
A lot of work is resource augmentation (there are exceptions) and just not that interesting. Capco keeps its prices low by running a lean business model, but some of the recent market challenges have resulted in large numbers of people on the bench who are not billable. This is not sustainable and has resulted in some targeted redundancies. I’ve had bad experiences of the resourcing process with pressure to take the first role that comes along rather than the role right for you. This is exacerbated by the fact that some project managers who lack integrity will say anything to get you to commit to their role to ensure they get their sale over the line. Capco has grown significantly over the last few years but the corporate functions and processes don’t seem to have scaled with it. I am not aware of any comp adjustments having been made resulting from the inflationary cost of living crisis
Consultant 2
Salary is good and the package they offer is fixed. 2 days wfo. No micromanagement
No proper training on tools provided
Co-operative and Approachable Management Opportunities for consultants to work in a variety of consultancy profiles Lot of focus on trainings
No specific cons as of now
Anonymous employee
good company and good exposure to FS
not the most coolest job in the world
Marketing
Great company to work for, culture and flexibility is one of the best things about Capco
No transparency between leadership and employees.
Management consultant
Decent WLB and sometimes decent people managers
Pretty dead-end projects and poor senior managers. Layoffs are plentiful.
Consultant
Nice, friendly people Good WLB
Low industry comp Lots of boring PMO projects
Associate consultant
Great company to work for
There are no cons, you get out what you put in.
Recruitment
Lots of activity, business engage with recruitment to ensure we are aligned. Lots if input form hiring managers and everyone gets the importance of the candidate experience - which as a Recruiter is brilliant! Great culture, can get very busy but you can manage your hours to make this work. Townhalls are engaging and useful, UK Managing Partner is great, overall it's great.
Can get busy, mad busy. Too bureaucratic at times. Demand changes at drop of a hat which can be frustrating. Office and tech bit dated.
- Senior Management team in Scotland very proactive and hands on - Opportunity to do varied work outside of pure project delivery - Genuinely trying to take on feedback to improve
- Sometimes feels like the loudest voice in the room is the one that receives more opportunity... the more face time you have with the right people the more recognition you get
nice work life balance overall
not enough challenging projects, can remain on bench for long, working with banking on technology side is like burying yourself under silos
Admin
great office, free drinks and friendly
body shop, no proper communication
Pmo analyst
Fair wage Yearly bonus Work life balance
Atmosphere Body leasing No carrier development opportunities
Senior consultant ii
Work Culture Flexibility Learning Opportunity
Nothing found so far in my tenure
Great place to gain experience and develop knowledge in an expertise. Firm is very friendly and open footed with an opportunity to make great working relationships. Workload is manageable but challenging.
The promotion cycle feels very rigid. Upward growth in the company comes from tenure more then performance.
I love how my employer doesn’t force the consultants to be in the office everyday. We have our RTO schedule but it’s not always fixed, you have the flexibility and most importantly you have the work-life balance. Though yearly bonus is not as huge as other consulting companies but somehow the other benefits are still considered good for a small-medium consulting firm, I hardly able to find other similar size companies with similar benefits.
Sometimes it’s scary once you are rolled off from the project and be on bench. You may be put into a project that is not your forte but at the end of the day, it’s on you whether you want to learn new things or you’d rather be on bench longer till you get the opportunity to join the project that is more of your preference.
Salary increment higher than market rate
Terrible management in Hong Kong and do not care about the employees. Promoting people without skills and laying off the people who are actually doing the job. Most micromanaged company I have ever been in.
You can be yourself at work
One major cash cow as customer
Good work life balance and friendly people
Progression can be very slow
- The remuneration package is good - They are willing to pay high salary - Medical fully covered employee and dependants - 13th month salary - Flexible working arrangement (very flexible for those who got assigned to a project)
- Lack of opportunities within the company as in no projects - Though you are hired permanently by Capco, you can be terminated anytime if you bring no money to the company. How to bring money in? You have to be assigned to a project. - Job security 👎 - Career growth can be stagnant - Performance review not transparent
Large clients in the financial services. Good support available from coaches, managers and peers.
Variation of roles for more junior people is hard to find, often to try a new role you may need experience. Difficult to move to new projects.
Managing principal
Entrepreneurial, great for professional growth and friendly environment
Lack of career pathways on senior roles ED and P level
Managing principal consultant
Good for early career to learn PMO skills
Use and abuse their consultants; little concern for professional development. Capco has little IP and no knowledge library. CEO and partner team working toward payout from Wipro
- If you are truly an individual contributor, this company is good enough for you because everything is fine till you handle the situation without getting a manager or another peer involved - They pay decent but not exactly as per consulting market standards
- Less employee engagement - Doesn’t feel like a workplace for a lifetime, It is a resourcing company backed by strong leadership. They will never feel dependent on you unless you are bringing in direct revenue.
Capco as a consulting firm grounds itself on the foundational principle of "Be Yourself At Work" - this brings authenticity and candidness to work interactions and is the breeding ground for innovation and growth. Having worked in banks/industry for most of my career, Capco comes as a breath of fresh air where your diverse skills and experience are valued and celebrated, and this clearly translates to enhanced productivity and engagement. On client sites, we often get compared with our competitors and its clear why Capco often wins the "value" proposition for the quality of our deliverable and our teams work ethic.
Would love to see more a more equitable partner demographic to drive the diversity one sees at the lower echelons of the company.
I wouldn't work at Capco. The structure is so disorganised.
Everything. Back office work for banks which isnt as sophisticated,
Great people to work with and learn a lot
Not many cons I can think of
Strategy and research specialist
- the culture is very good
- the salary is very low
Nice offices and work for home culture
Work culture, training, lack of transparency, pay and bonuses
Chill and relaxed with decent perks
No growth opportunities or space to develop skills
good perks and facility good benifits
they will just assign to the prohects which are less duration ..once that project is over if they dont get any projects they will put you into garden leave ..no guarantee of a job ..pls think before joining to this company
work life balance afterwork events
Lots of favouritism and biased promotions not based on merit Cannot keep staff or partners Wipro
Sr consultant
Capco has a strong portfolio of clients, offering opportunities to work on challenging and high-visibility projects. Career growth is possible for those who take initiative, and a few managers are genuinely supportive and help employees develop professionally.
However, the HR policies are not very employee-friendly. Employees are sometimes placed on garden leave without much transparency, and there’s a lack of proactive engagement from the HR team — for example, one-on-one sessions are not regularly scheduled, which can leave employees feeling disconnected.
It was great! Yayyy! Go me
They made a lot of people redundant
The company offers a great work culture with a balanced workload, providing a positive work-life balance. However, experiences may vary depending on the team you are in.
Overall, the company has a positive work environment and supportive colleagues. However, the main drawback is the limited salary increment opportunities, which may affect long-term motivation.
Associate
good work - life balance
few managers are more of bossy
A breadth of fresh air - a consulting firm, which speaks plain English, is not elitist and doesn't try to ram an existing toolkit into every client engagement. Very flexible and with a can-do attitude. Promotes authenticity of people and champions individual styles, while providing open, tolerant culture where the most important aspect is how you want to progress, as long as you are willing to accept the challenge. I have yet to find anyone in the leadership team not willing to have a chat, openness is another huge advantage.
Some of the more junior associates may lack the energy and can-do attitude of the more seasoned ones. Not a company issue, just the reality of the job market and, dare I say, Gen Z.
Manager
great colleagues, competetive salary, chance for high visibility
could be more organized, greater leadership
Is a neutral company to work for
None i can think of as of now
Benefits and people but also events, clients and global reach
Not much to say, great experience I had in the past and recommend it
Great pay. Friendly colleagues. Decent bonuses.
Nothing to add regarding cons.
Can work for some good clients
A body shop Bad culture
It was a decent experience
Politics was at peak and needed to be controlled
Wipro Co so secure I guess to a point
Very poor out out of date Management
Salary will be credited a week before !!!
Don't expect Additional benefits, Due to small organization projects are very less and No recognition for Dedicated Employees
Good experience if you get the right coach
Lack of support and pressure to come off the bench
Great team, fun to work with
Lack of choice in postings
