Pros

The company is a IT consulting company so there is travel involved. The company has great opportunities for aspiring individuals to contribute and make a difference. The salary and benefits have been great because they consider themselves a premium consulting service so they are expensive but there experience in the Finance world is highly recognized although I don't have any personal experience in that area. I like the atmosphere and my management team.

Cons

The travel can be hectic and the pressure intense because they have important clients but what company doesn't? I would like to have more guidance and direction and more contact with my mentor but I think this aspect of the company is still growing. The QA skills for the other workers are far below what I would expect from a premium firm. I think they are overly concerned with billable and not actual work delivered.

Pros

Lots of smart people with great work ethics, experience and diverse backgrounds.

Cons

I had joined Capco to be part of an industry leading niche player that focuses exclusively on interesting financial services initiatives. What I actually joined was a generic consulting firm that has no clear direction, poor leadership that has been unable to penetrate new clients and a highly political environment. if you are fortunate enough to be aligned with one of the so-called "practice leaders" you are generally set. Project opportunities are typically generic project management/PMO type or staff augmentation type roles. Strategic work the firm used to be known for (and what originally attracted me) is non-existent. Client base has dwindled and there is high concentration of people at only a handful of clients. Many if the practice leads/partners came from BearingPoint - yes, the same firm that went bankrupt - and now they are leading Capco in the same downward direction.
