Nothing but lies

Pros

None, really. It's been an incredibly awful experience and truly a setback in my career.

Cons

Anyone interested in technical roles should avoid this company. You'll do nothing but mindless grunt work (don't believe the "we don't do staff aug" lies. It's the only type of work they can get with most clients). Any form of career growth requires you to be involved in sales and/or account management (which is basically just sales). DE&I is performative at best. There's literally nothing good about working here.

This is a disheartening review to read. We work with Fortune 500 clients, across a multitude of industries, solving some of their toughest tech challenges. While staff augmentation can be a part of some projects, it is certainly not the bulk of the incredible work we do as a company. Along with expanding skill sets on exciting client work, we have true growth paths for our people, including people management and subject matter expertise. We are tremendously proud of our Diversity, Inclusion, and Belonging (DIB) efforts spearheaded by our DIB Council and Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) which are supported by our executive leadership and driven by our people. There is nothing performative about the work these dedicated groups are doing at CapTech. You are welcome to reach out to me directly to discuss your concerns. -Katy Apostolides, Managing Director - HR

Pros

The staff are great and always make time to support growth and development. You had the opportunity to not travel for projects, this helped me a great deal.

Cons

Everyone is really just trying to hold things together. After Sr. Consultant, if you ever want to be promoted you have work on internal initiatives, network at events and excel on the client billable work. Sounds simple enough, but what ends up happening is things get pushed off to someone lower level, you cut corners with the client to complete proposals or you burn out. Networking events that involve alcohol sounds great, but anyone with kids or other obligations feel left out of the "in crowd". Killing it on projects is simply not enough. Two CEOs is redundant... especially when you layoff staff and are closing offices. Not sure what the executive leadership do once they are promoted to that level other than speak at events/ internal meetings and keep staff motivated. Very little diversity, especially the higher up the chain. There have been efforts, but more lip service and awareness than any actual change. A lot of my peers and colleagues in my service offering have left for other opportunities because of better salary, these secret layoffs or burn out . Right now it seems like everybody for themselves environment.

Thank you for taking the time to write your review. Our CapTechers are our priority, and it is unfortunate that your time with us was not the CapTech experience we strive for. To be clear, there have not been any layoffs. We acknowledge that the global health crisis created an unavoidable slowdown for CapTech in the early months of 2020 and our response included a temporary furlough program. Fast forward to today, we are thrilled to see continued, steady growth and client demand across all Practice Areas for both new and existing clients. This growth momentum has allowed us to re-open all offices on a voluntary basis to increase CapTecher flexibility and offer additional workspace options for those who need it. Thank you, again, for the feedback. –Katy Apostolides, HR Director

Pros

There are genuinely good people at the consultant level.

Cons

- Leadership choices and promotions are based off of favoritism. - Projects are not consulting, and are more staff augmentation. - Lack of diversity in leadership. - Out of touch leadership: When the country grapples with race issues, the company chose to sponsor four Caucasian PGA golfers

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. I’m sorry to hear about your extreme disappointment. Our CapTechers, core values, community impact, and clients are our topmost priorities. Many times, we have an incredible opportunity to make an impact in all of these areas within just one project. PGA is one example. The multiple opportunities for innovative technology and impactful support to local communities are the reason behind our PGA sponsorship and involvement in the golf industry --not race, ethnicity, or colors of skin. You are welcome to learn more by visiting the sponsorships page on our website (https://www.captechconsulting.com/pga-sponsorships). Please also feel free to reach out to me directly at kapostolides@captechconsulting.com. I’m happy to answer any questions and clear up the misinformation about our Great Lakes region (Chicago and Columbus offices) and internal departments. –Katy Apostolides, HR Director
