Pros

Capital Placement offers a dynamic, flexible, and innovative work environment. As a front-end engineer, I’ve had the chance to work on impactful projects that push boundaries while collaborating with a highly supportive team. The company is deeply committed to personal and professional growth, providing resources like specialized training, learning budgets, and leadership opportunities to help employees achieve their career goals. The remote and collaborative culture promotes inclusivity, transparency, and a shared drive to make a positive impact both internally and for clients. They even assist in setting up your home office if needed. Capital Placement values work-life balance, with fun activities and budgets allocated for games and team bonding. It’s not just about work—there’s a great balance that keeps things engaging. Overall, it’s an excellent place for professionals who want to grow across many areas while enjoying their time at work.

Cons

I don’t have many cons to mention. Perhaps the limited in-person interaction with teammates and colleagues from other departments could be one. However, Capital Placement addresses this well with an encouraging collaborative culture, regular catch-up systems, and an annual trip that helps bridge the gap. I’d say it’s more of a challenge than a direct con.

Pros

1) Colleagues. You get to work with people that have very diverse education & work backgrounds, as well as very interesting characteristics. Everyone is very keen on learning from each other and love seeing each other grow their career professionally. If you like the CP work culture, then you will want to come to work every day instead of feeling unmotivated and exhausted. 2) Remote working. If you prefer to work remotely / hybrid, CP is a good place to go. They are very flexible with how you work as long as you are productive and are online the majority of the time when all the other colleagues are online (due to different time zones). If you are based in Sri Lanka or London, there is an office place where you can work with other colleagues a few days a week (it's up to you). You get to save a lot of money on lunches and transportation, and you get a lot more personal time since you don't need to travel to work often. 3) The founders. Our founders Vinay and Niran always take care of our colleagues, they are very patient and give you a lot of room for growth. Both of them are here to help you with your work instead of just telling you what to do, they also consistently show appreciation towards all the work the team do. They are very easy to talk to, and are always available for you if you need them. They are not like the traditional boss that keeps a distance from you. 4) Potential for growth. CP is still a small team so there is much room for growth. You have the opportunity to take on more responsibilities instead of just staying in your day-to-day role, whether it's from within your department or cross-department. There are a lot of promising projects coming in 2023 and you will get the chance to get out of your comfort zone and do something that you won't normally do in other companies (eg: Travel to conferences / our internship locations to meet with employers and candidates).

Cons

1) Remote working It's a pro and also a con. Time management and organisational skills are essential when it comes to remote working at CP because your supervisor or the founders won't micro-manage you. If you prefer to work with close monitoring, then CP won't be a good company for you. Since it's remote working, CP asks everyone to turn on their camera during meetings. If you don't like this then again, CP won't be a good fit for you. 2) Small team. Since CP is not a large team, you might need to take on projects that are not in your JD, or are not part of your day-to-day job activities. The projects won't be forced onto you, and they will most likely match your skillset (eg: Be a supervisor to a CP short-term intern), but if you prefer to do exactly what's on the JD and prefer to not take any extra short-term projects, CP won't be a good fit for you. 3) Adaptability CP is changing and growing very fast, especially since mid-2022, everyone (including the founders) needs to learn and adapt very fast to adapt to this change. If you prefer to work on what you know and stay in a role that doesn't require much change, CP won't be a good fit for you.
