Pros

The people truly are Capco's best asset. You collaborate with smart individuals who enjoy working with each other. Everyone seems to be on the same page. The projects and clients are interesting, and all within financial services. The interview process turned around quickly and the stories of the great culture and chance to own your career from the recruiter were verified by the interviewers and seen during my time here. You get great access to senior management/partners and everyone is very genuine to help each other out. There's always something going on whether to increase our knowledge or to meet other consultants, all whilst having fun. You need to check out the ilab, it's very cool and a great example of how Capco are investing in being the best in the business.

Cons

- If you want to coast then this is not the place for you. You will be expected to work hard (and at times work late but this is no different with any other consultancy) but you will be challenged and rewarded as such. - NA is growing rapidly, especially in the NY area, so far senior management are doing a good job managing the process and ensuring nothing slips through the gaps, I'm hopeful that they'll keep it up.

Pros

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.

Cons

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.
