Vantaggi

- Horizontal leadership style gives entry-level employees great leadership exposure - Community work is often engaging and allows you to meet like-minded people - Capco does a great job of hiring-- I have made genuine, smart and interesting friends during my time here - Capco tries hard to help employees engaged in company culture and develop realtionships with external community organizations through CSR, Women@Capco, Diversity & Inclusion, Mental Health Awareness, Pride etc.

Svantaggi

- PMO/BA roles are not often engaging and can feel like being a glorified secretary - Toxic masculinity exists (as in anywhere in finance) and there are a lot of incompetent men in middle-leadership positions who get away with consistent sexism and racism - There are not enough opportunities for new hires to develop hard skills in the learning and development initiatives. (Where trainings do exist, they could be greatly improved/modernized or other, more accredited learning platforms could be leveraged.) - Long hours (12 hrs+) are sometimes expected (project dependent) - The culture you experience at this firm is dependent on your team, which can be laden with internal politics

Thank you for your positive comments on Capco. In particular, how the firm is a great place to start a careers, our inclusive culture and the empowerment of people which goes with this. However, we are very disappointed about the comment on middle management generally in the Finance sector. I can reassure you categorically that, in Capco at least, there are robust policies in place that are very clear that any behaviour of the type you describe is not tolerated in our firm. Should anyone (leader or not) act in a manner that undermines our commitment to Diversity and Inclusion, s/he would be subject to serious remedial actions (including dismissal. if applicable). Given our intolerance of the behaviour, we also encourage any staff member who sees unacceptable behaviour to report it and we have provisions in place to safeguard anyone who makes a complaint in good faith. On your other feedback, if you find that your work insufficiently challenging, please discuss this with your manager. S/he is empowered to make changes to roles or job content. Capco is not looking to under-utilise the talent we have and there is lots of work to do. I can reassure you that we continue to invest heavily in development. We have recently introduced a new e-learning platform which gives staff access to a wealth of personal and leadership development support. Feedback from our people has been positive. Finally, you are right to stress the importance of local teams in fostering development and progression but, at Capco, we are committed to empowering teams and leaders to structure work activity in a way that makes the most of the development opportunities available on the job. I urge you to have a conversation on your development at your next review meeting, I am sure you will find it another positive experience.

Vantaggi

Lavoro vario con i clienti: diversi clienti e tipologie di progetti, il che rende il lavoro sempre interessante. Reale mobilità tra i progetti: puoi passare da un progetto all'altro se ti fai avanti (entro limiti ragionevoli). Leadership accessibile: i dirigenti senior sono disponibili al dialogo se li contatti. Buone risorse per lo sviluppo: molte opportunità di formazione e crescita se le sfrutti. Team solidi: i colleghi sono intelligenti, competenti e fantastici con cui lavorare. Ambiente imprenditoriale: le nuove idee sono incoraggiate e c'è spazio per prendere l'iniziativa.

Svantaggi

Orari di lavoro prolungati variabili a seconda del progetto: come per la maggior parte delle professioni, alcuni incarichi richiedono orari di lavoro prolungati, ma l'equilibrio tra vita professionale e privata dipende molto dal cliente e dal team. Responsabilità interne aggiuntive: a seconda del livello, può esserci una quantità significativa di lavoro di supporto all'azienda al di fuori della fornitura al cliente. Allineamento con il dominio non garantito: potresti non essere sempre assegnato a progetti che corrispondono alla tua competenza di dominio. Vincoli di allineamento del coaching: i rapporti di coaching sono legati al dominio, il che limita la flessibilità nella scelta di mentori formali. Incarichi lunghi (a volte): alcuni progetti si protraggono a lungo o prevedono più proroghe. Ciò può offrire stabilità, ma potrebbe ridurre la varietà nell'esperienza con clienti e progetti a seconda di ciò che stai cercando.
