Capco Response
4y
We are very disappointed to read your comments as we place our company values front and center in everything that we do. As you rightly mention, a key focus of our DEI agenda is on championing women in the workplace supported by hiring and progression targets for our employees to further advance gender parity at the firm. We also have an active Women@Capco Affinity Group with regular events open to all employees and our UK Business Lead spoke at our recent Town Hall about running an amplification campaign for women employees. Performance ratings at Capco are awarded after careful evaluation with input from a variety of stakeholders. These are supported by a roundtable process to promote fairness and remove bias from the process. We also review both ratings and compensation from a diversity perspective to ensure equitable outcomes. Our independent reporting hotline which you refer to is available to all employees, providing a safe vehicle for colleagues to report a situation, anonymously if they wish, to an independent party. We can assure you that any issues raised are taken very seriously and swiftly investigated and addressed. We also offer a variety of internal channels for employees to voice their feedback, suggestions or concerns at any time and we actively encourage colleagues to have their say.

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.
