Pros

Fair comp and benefits as well as pleasant coworkers

Cons

Approach to performance reviews and targets is strange. 40%+ of performance is allocated to non-core functions called community. They expect you to be billable full-time, but then find time (10+hrs a week) to do volunteer work as well as participate in auxiliary activities. Recruiting, whitepapers, etc. make sense. But it's left intentionally vague how much you need to do to meet targets. Also, the sales targets of top leaders are pushed down below them without allocation of any hiring authority, expense budget to meet potential clients, or time/training to do business development. Some amount of renewable business happens at existing clients, but not the at the level passed down. You can't sell extra people that don't exist if everyone is already placed and you don't have hiring authority or ability to market to the outside. Disconnect with those realities. Also, the company was pushing DEI and had woke type policy statements going out from HR. I didn't see it yielding unfair hiring or promotion practices, but I have seen that in other places with such a focus to where it was a red flag for me staying. They openly stated the mix of people what effectively too white. The company had plenty of female representation.

Thank you for your review. Unfortunately, there are some misstatements we would like to correct. Our performance framework defines performance expectations at each level. Community is one component of this and represents the contribution employees make in building community at Capco. This can be done through coaching others, developing new business opportunities, leading affinity groups, etc. It represents 20-25% of your overall performance assessment. The other factors considered in performance assessments are your performance in your core role and your commercial success in terms of billability (and revenue at more senior levels). If you have any questions around this or need more clarity, we encourage you to reach out to your HR Business Partner or review the dedicated CapcoHub page. Capco is firmly committed to a diverse, equitable, and inclusive workplace. This is demonstrated not only through our hiring and progression targets, but through our daily actions and our Be YourselfAtWork culture. Our goal has always been to create a workplace where everyone feels they belong, can contribute, and has the opportunity to fulfil their potential. As a meritocracy, people are hired, assessed, and rewarded based on their skills, experience, and the contribution they make to the business.
