A Great Place to Build a Career

Pros

I have been with the company for several years after working for another well known consulting firm. In comparison, I am impressed with the overall culture and the growth opportunities afforded. I have been able to assume much greater client responsibilities and take on account leadership duties as well. I feel like I can progress as quickly as I am ready. Office leadership has been responsive as well to my desire to get involved with outside interest groups and CapTech also headlines community outreach events which is important to me. I enjoy feeling like I can develop professionally while staying connected to my outside interests.

Cons

CapTech has seen tremendous growth the past few years and sometimes the growing pains appear when putting in place new processes around compensation and coaching. CapTech is not perfect but they have put in place mechanisms to get feedback from the market and its employees and they act on that feedback. CapTech’s heart is in the right place.

Pros

This company is super young, so it's an amazing place to start a career! Between the benefits, the near constant happy hours, the generous PTO policy - most of the benefits are great for young professionals. If you join in their college new hire program, you are treated like royalty, which is pretty amazing. Leadership truly cares about making a great employee experience, and it shows in a number of the programs. Leadership truly buys into the core values. If you want a sense of what working at CapTech is like, look no further than their core values. You can generally work where you live, especially in the established offices on the east coast. There's a very positive company culture in general. People are generally happy to be there, and you're surrounded by lots of smart, talented people who are willing to help. There's also a great culture around PTO - you're strongly encouraged to take all your PTO.

Cons

CapTech is super reactive to whatever they happen to be able to sell. From my level it didn't appear to have any sort of strategy for growing or preparing consultants for skills that would be needed in the future because even leadership has no clue what they're going to sell. Company meetings are a joke - they're mostly silly videos of Principals because there wasn't any sort of strategy to go over. There's a strong culture of "internal work" - doing non-billable hours above and beyond your 40 hour work week to either gain new skills or contribute to the company. Expect to work more than 40 hours each week, though excessively long weeks are rare or voluntary. Because management is reactive, internal requests can be frustrating because demands change too quickly. This company is beginning to expect more travel and does not have the infrastructure in place to appropriately reward you for that. In the smaller offices (<100 people in the office), the culture is largely driven by the office lead, so the experience may be significantly different from the culture from the larger offices. Staff aug. This is probably the only topic that you can't get leadership to be realistic about. They continue to claim that they only sell staff aug in rare circumstances, but that's just not the case. Some of the staff aug that they sell is still high quality work! Knowing the right person is crucial to your success.

Pros

The work is interesting and provides real value to clients. Employees have autonomy to drive their career development and get involved in opportunities. Leadership takes time to elicit feedback and incorporate it to improve company operations.

Cons

There are some growing pains with national expansion and with that comes some roles that are less consulting and more staff aug. This is not the norm by any means, but this has been more noticeable over the last year.

CapTech developed as a Coaching and Feedback organization several years ago and we have made great progress in a short period of time. One of the goals of our Coaching culture is to foster individual growth and encourage our employees to drive their careers. We are so happy to hear that you feel valued. As we continue to become more comfortable with providing and receiving feedback, we will continue to instill trust and transparency into our culture.
