Thank you for your positive comments on Capco. In particular, how the firm is a great place to start a careers, our inclusive culture and the empowerment of people which goes with this.
However, we are very disappointed about the comment on middle management generally in the Finance sector. I can reassure you categorically that, in Capco at least, there are robust policies in place that are very clear that any behaviour of the type you describe is not tolerated in our firm. Should anyone (leader or not) act in a manner that undermines our commitment to Diversity and Inclusion, s/he would be subject to serious remedial actions (including dismissal. if applicable). Given our intolerance of the behaviour, we also encourage any staff member who sees unacceptable behaviour to report it and we have provisions in place to safeguard anyone who makes a complaint in good faith.
On your other feedback, if you find that your work insufficiently challenging, please discuss this with your manager. S/he is empowered to make changes to roles or job content. Capco is not looking to under-utilise the talent we have and there is lots of work to do. I can reassure you that we continue to invest heavily in development. We have recently introduced a new e-learning platform which gives staff access to a wealth of personal and leadership development support. Feedback from our people has been positive.
Finally, you are right to stress the importance of local teams in fostering development and progression but, at Capco, we are committed to empowering teams and leaders to structure work activity in a way that makes the most of the development opportunities available on the job. I urge you to have a conversation on your development at your next review meeting, I am sure you will find it another positive experience.
