Overall pretty good place to work - Consultant bei CapTech: Mitarbeiterbewertung

Recruiting - CapTech recruitment is very homogeneous. This company does almost all of its recruiting from the same 4 colleges in Virginia. On top of that, they tend to recruit from the frat/sorority crowd. Before the pandemic all work events had alcohol, CapTech pays enough money that they have box seats at UVA basketball stadium, I wonder why all these party bros want to work here... My hope that the pandemic has helped the culture shift way from its previous normal. Due to the pandemic most work social events were put on hold, and now the company has the option to recruit from anywhere, my hope is that we see more variety in those coming to work here. Pressure to work more than 40 hours - The more important a project is at CapTech the more people you find regularly working more than 40 hours. While no one has ever forced me to work more than a 40 hours a week there is a culture where working overtime is encouraged. The system is supposed to work so that if someone works overtime, they will bill those hours and at the end of the year they will get a larger bonus because of it. In practice what people do is work more than 40 hours, but only put in 40 hours on their time card (because actually billing overtime cost the client money). My advice is don't fall into this utilization propaganda. Do your 40 hours of work, and don't feel pressured to get involved in internal activities. You are allowed at CapTech to have a good work life balance. The only way to get there is to say no often. The opposite is true as well, if you want to say goodbye to your friends and family and be a "go getter" I am sure you will get a bigger bonus. At the end of the day CapTech pays good wages, so don't waste your time chasing after money that is not guaranteed.
