Pros

Good for early career to learn PMO skills

Cons

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

Capco Response
3y
We are extremely disappointed to receive your feedback, in particular, the inaccurate statement that you have made about our leadership team who, including our CEO, have been with the firm for many years, are firmly committed to Capco, and work very hard to do what’s best for the firm and our people, now and for the long term. We continue to run independently from Wipro, have retained our own brand and leadership structure, and will continue to do so. As a professional services firm, Capco is focused on partnering with our clients to provide solutions to their challenges, and to help them take advantage of opportunities. We are a consultancy, and not a product development company, and so creating IP is not our business. Finally, Capco is proud of our people-first culture, and we are committed to developing and creating opportunities for our people. We have robust learning and development offerings, which include both online and live training courses, and also offer a variety of programs to support the development of our people, including Milestone schools at every level. Every consultant has a coach (separate from their line manager) and we have twice-yearly promotion cycles to facilitate people’s career progression. Similarly, we place significant focus on employee wellbeing – both mental and physical. We have a global wellbeing group and a diverse range of benefits and resources to support our people’s health and wellbeing. We are also proud of the fact that our work-life balance ratings on GD are consistently higher than similar companies in our sector.

Pros

- Good work-life balance - Nice people - Cool office (Empire State Building)

Cons

- Low raises + bonuses (promotions are highly political/based on who you know) - Low mobility on certain projects - Difficult to get involved in planning/helping with community events (part of performance review) - Leadership positions competitive rates as our differentiator (i.e., firm competes on cost rather than on technical depth/expertise relative to peer firms)
