Pros

- Great people culture - Pay and vacation package was incredible, especially when starting out! - It's an incredible open culture. You'll know what people will think about you, and for personal and professional growth, that's an incredible opportunity

Cons

- As with any consulting job, there's a work life balance you must consider - From an Experience Strategy, or Design Thinking perspective, there's more work to be done to be able to successfully capitalize on opportunities Capco was missing at the time. This is more of an upper level management problem that needs to be solved

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We agree that Capco has great people and a great culture! We also ensure that we offer market-leading compensation and benefits packages by undertaking regular reviews. As you mention, the consulting profession can be a challenging yet rewarding career choice at times, however, we always aims to promote a positive work life balance for our employees at Capco. If any employee feels this balance is not attainable due to their role, we would recommend that they speak with their Coach or HR Business Partner.

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.

Cons

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.
