Pros

Good benefits and vacation policy

Cons

Upon reaching management levels there are increasing expectations for all functional and technical employees to do business development. Yet there is no structure to this, no budget allocated for conferences, or customer events. They expect you to self generate business opportunities out of thin air while working full-time. Also, exaggerated emphasis placed on 'community' goals involving internal initiatives and community service type activities. Your core job performance typically making up 75-90% of your rating is but 60%. I think this may be just a way to leave it very flexible for political influences to override ratings. Took me all of one annual cycle to see how bad this was.

Pros

Capco has a friendly culture where people like to win together. A solid meritocracy that is expertise focused, and growth oriented with approachable leaders and plenty of opportunities for advancement.

Cons

Employees should be self-motivated (which for me is a plus), but being a smaller company it does lack clear and standard documentation routines. There is no one-size fits all career map, which allows self-starters to succeed and rise quickly in the organization.
