Vantaggi

• Partnered with big names in the financial sector • Good place to START if you’re transitioning from industry to consulting • Decent lower end Company to start out of college wit

Svantaggi

• Capco has changed from consulting firm and into a glorified staffing agency • Projects are high-end Staff Aug and Operations work – Strategy and consulting projects are few and far between • They have no methodology’s, frameworks, models or even a knowledge management that helps junior / mid-level learn or grow professionally (they poach heavily on industry professionals because of this) • Consultants are heavily leverage against projects they are over qualified for, this leaves resources on projects well below their competency and have no room to be challenged • Extremely High Turnover (Voluntary) • High Layoff rate • The new ‘Changesourcing’ is just re-branded outsourcing, the nature of these contracts end with sending roles to cheaper off-shore locations (Massive Hiring followed by Massive Layoffs)

Vantaggi

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.

Svantaggi

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.
