      Pros

      - Great experience to notable investment banks and other financial services firms - Amazing culture, people, benefits and work life balance - Decent Pay, not crazy high, but industry standards - It's a great first job out of college where you'll have the opportunity to learn a lot and work with bright people who came from larger consulting firms or the Industry. - I was leaning on a 3.5 but decided to round up instead of down because honestly I liked it while I was there

      Cons

      - PMO/BA work primarily but really mainly PMO. It's hard to find a role outside of that and once you're stuck doing PMO work they'll make an effort to keep you there - Leadership was a bit poor. I'll say that they definitely were trying to be decent and did strive for transparency, but they made obvious poor decisions and exaggerated the work/impact of Capco - Capco is a small company compared to its larger competitors, so personal relationships existed within the company between managements and their juniors that would make several employees uncomfortable. Some of it unsolicited, all of it unprofessional. Although this isn't unique to Capco, they didn't have a strong enough HR system to report issues and provide feedback to leadership with keeping things anonymous. For example, there was a married partner clearly involved with a PC that he coached that everyone knew about but noone knew how to say anything because the HR team consists of 5 people and is in favor of the leadership. It wouldn't that much of a problem if their relationship didn't bleed into the daily office work.

      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.
