Like every club , there is one person in the club who thinks he owns the club and yes this club also has a person who heads this Pune Club .
I worked here for 11 months and in my entire career of 4.5 years I have never regretted my decision of joining a company besides joining this company. This is probably the first and only company on planet earth where leads and developers are more worried about bench than the managers. Let me be honest here, things are not the same in Capco across the globe, I have interacted with people in Bengaluru (India) and in other international locations- It has some good projects and very efficient management in all other locations, so its not a bad company to join just avoid Pune Club :). Projects are secured by the company based on its brand name but in few months they are lost due to inefficient leadership. In my tenure I saw two clients pulling out of Capco just because the management could not manage the relationship. Developers were disappointed as they could not see their efforts go live.
I also want to warn people who plan to join Pune Capco, that you be threatened everyday by leadership if you are not part of their clan....Yes there is a Clan of Family and friends at leadership of Pune. Also you will not be able to raise any concerns as the HR is tamed by the leadership and has no authority.
Work from Home policies are biased. Family and friends of leader are allowed free WFH decision while everyone else is threatened even though they are on bench.
My last piece of advice to everyone who wants to join or is already working in Capco Pune- Move to Bengaluru, take a project and move to client site or QUIT. Pune location is a perfect example of " People do not leave organisation, they leave managers (read leadership in this case)
