Pluspunten

Nice phone. If you managed to get a brand new one.

Minpunten

1. In general, it’s a career suicide for anyone who expects management consulting role. Capco is already well known as a body shopping firm in the industry now, even the client called Capco’s people “contractor” instead of “consultant”. Project assignment in Capco means filling any available vacancy at client with whoever is available on bench at cheap cost, and the job is never strategic. Consultant's career development is the least of the firm's concern (if there’s any). Also, vast majority of consultants works for the same client means client rotation is almost impossible. 2. People management. It is just a mess. Office politics, irregular salary payment schedule, incorrect leave balances, duplicated assignment, be prepared to look after your own record. 3. Recognition. It's extremely cliquey if you are seriously looking for it. Client's satisfaction was not even taken into account for job recognition. Performance review has nothing to do with client’s feedback, and depends only on your contribution on the happy hour events and how well you can get into the clique. 4. Co-workers and Management. Great people left (or were leaving). Rarely met professional people. Only big and empty talks by management.

Pluspunten

Varied client work — Different clients and project types, which keeps things interesting. Real project mobility — You can move between projects when you advocate for yourself (within reason). Approachable leadership — Senior leaders are open to conversations if you reach out. Good development resources — Plenty of training and growth opportunities if you take advantage of them. Strong teams — Colleagues are smart, capable, and great to work with. Entrepreneurial environment — New ideas are encouraged, and there’s room to take initiative.

Minpunten

Long hours vary by project — Like most any professional job, some engagements require extended hours for prolonged periods, but work–life balance really depends on the client and team. Additional internal responsibilities — Depending on level, there can be a significant amount of firm‑support work outside of client delivery. Domain alignment not guaranteed — You may not always be staffed on projects that match your domain expertise. Coaching alignment constraints — Coaching relationships are tied to domain, which limits flexibility in choosing formal mentors. Long engagements (sometimes) — Some projects run for long durations or through multiple extensions. It can provides stability but may reduce variety in client and project experience depending on what you’re looking for.
