Pros

There are some really great people still left at the company Great Benefits

Kontras

Culture is toxic and unsupportive. Long work hours. Client assignments are random and seldom a good fit. Promotion/annual reviews are a glorified popularity contest. Client roster constantly in flux due to upper management losing business; when this happens and you are moved to the bench through no fault of your own it is marked negatively on your record. When on the bench you must compete with others to gain favor of the partners as they place people based on who they like rather than best fit; during this time anyone in the company who is billable can ping you to work on the most mundane tasks. If they decide they don't like you, you're given vague messages indicating "people are angry" and then rolled off your project no matter how well you are performing. Upper management makes fun of employees' appearance and make racially insensitive comments on a regular basis and then insist they are "just joking". Coaches are the real joke, they are no help at all, just another layer in the Capco bureaucracy. Other than the benefits, there is nothing to be gained in working with Capco versus any other placement firm; at least with a staffing agency you work only for the client and are not expected to build another company on your off hors.

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.

Kontras

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.
