Pros
Capco offers a variety of ways to contribute to the firm's growth and success, and unmatched access to leadership and decisionmakers (getting time on calendars is easier here than anywhere I've been). There isn't a one-size-fits-all approach to career development and if you're ambitious, you can create your own journey. Although we're a niche firm, primarily focused on the financial services industry, the diversity of projects across our domains and solutions, along with internal contribution work, keeps things interesting. Above all, the people at Capco are smart, helpful and kind. Our #beyourselfatwork culture sets the tone for inclusion, and there is an expectation that people are able to be their authentic selves at work. Shape-shifting and codeswitching aren't required to be successful here. Senior leaders are committed to improving diversity at the firm and are both open and receptive to feedback around how to improve.
Cons
Capco's culture and pace can certainly feel a bit daunting for those who aren't as extroverted or outspoken, or who need more time to prepare and process. The nimble, "it-is-what-you-make-it" gray areas of the firm can be confusing, and there's also more we could do to invest in learning opportunities for our people. And as with most roles and firms, there's more work to do than time.

Cons
No cons to report here
Hi All, Just got offered a VP role at Citi for a middle office team $145k base and variable bonus based on performance. Im in NYC and am currently a Senior Consultant with 5 YOE at Capco at 133k base and 10% bonus (have hit 10% bonus 2 years in a row). What do you think about this offer? Im looking to exit consulting, but am up for promotion this year and am well over target to hit my promotion (would be around 150-160k base after promotion when the cycle ends. Let me know your thoughts!
I wouldn’t take it
Would be glad to get some help. Bit junior and new to this world. What would be better - Move to the industry (A financial service) or stick with consulting? Moving to industry would mean to specialise in one field and excel in it. Whereas consulting will give the overall exposure to different banks. This is my third year in consulting (9 months in capco)
In FS, consulting might let you have projects for different banks but it’s still likely you’ll specialize in one area. I’m in FS. The banks all do things differently, but the overarching concept is all the same. It absolutely depends on you - I like working with a team for a period of time and then getting a new team and new tasks/challenges, so I’ve stuck with consulting. If you prefer less change and/or need better work life balance, go with industry.
