Thank you for your review. We are pleased to read that you appreciated the market-leading compensation and benefits offered by Capco. We regularly assess our offering in the market to ensure that we remain competitive. It is difficult to respond fully to your other comments without understanding your specific circumstances, however, Capco has a robust performance management in place. We operate a 6-monthly review cycle and hold roundtables to ensure that multiple people have an input into an individual's assessment. If any employee has any concerns or questions regarding our process at any time, we would encourage them to speak with their HR representative who would be happy to discuss.

Great Company For Growth

Business Outlook

Pros

-Friendly culture and supportive environment -Small enough that you can learn most peoples names and have a sense of community with the company as a whole -Willing to take risks in terms of business opportunities and allows junior members to run with initiatives if capable -So far, has been a place that rewards and recognizes high achievers

Cons

There are wide spread concerns that the recent private equity purchase will negatively impact promotions, wage increases and bonuses. While this may increase profits in the short term, this will definitely increase turnover, particularly for high performing talent who will be forced to seek employment elsewhere. High performers should be paid market standards for retention purposes since they are often the ones enabling existing accounts to see the value from hiring Capco consultants. High and low performers have many opportunities to join larger consulting firms and attrition of top talent due to compensation discrepancies will negatively impact the long term health of Capco and will be noticeable in their long term accounts.

Culture of fear and harassment.

Pros

A full time salary which is competitive against the market.

Cons

If you like working in a dictatorship environment, surrounded by the most incompetent HR leadership in the industry then this is the place for you. There is a culture of fear and harassment, bullying, and avoidance of dealing with significant cultural issues. Good people leave, bad people get promoted if they are friends with the right 'leaders'. New joiners get encouraged to write favorable reviews on glassdoor as a cover up, vs encouraged to be part of a much needed culture change.

Thank you for your review. We are sorry to hear that you have been disappointed about your experience at Capco. Capco has stringent policies in place in relation to bullying, and we take these matters very seriously. Inappropriate behaviour will not be tolerated, and our employees have a network of support channels available, including managers, coaches, leaders, HR and communities. As a firm, we have partnered with Glassdoor for a number of years, and we encourage all employees (current and former) to share their Capco story on the site. We read all reviews, evaluate the feedback (good and bad) and use this to make continuous improvements, and to make the firm an even better place to work. We would encourage you to reach out to our Global HR Director, Richard Gartside to discuss your feedback in more detail.
