What is the culture like, type of work and reputation of Capco in the Data & Analytics space?
I have some good ex colleagues who moved over there and also looked up on LinkedIn and see lots of seemingly smart and accomplished people in their D&A team in the UK.
I'll ask my ex colleagues too, but wanted to see if people here have any opinion or information on this too.
TIA

Hi fishes, I am looking for expert inputs on my next possible career move.
I have 10.5 years of total workex, and recently got promoted to CL6 (Sr Manager) at Accenture. I work in data science and analytics. My total comp's over 55 LPA. I'm looking for exit options outside. One big aspiration for me now is to settle down with a better work life balance as currently I spend 12+ hours on a daily basis in high stress projects. Please suggest firms which are hiring at these levels. TIA!

If I were hiring, I would like to see someone who has worked for 3+ years in one team/company and grown there. Thats proof of your ability to deliver consistently. Clearing interviews is easy, delivering on promise is difficult.
However, nothing wrong with moving on if you're not happy where you are. Delivering on promise isn't a one way street.
What rubbish you are talking about. It takes efforts to switch. You can easily stay in same organization for 3 years just by doing minimum work. But when you switch, you have to start from scratch to understand new domain and new project. You have to deliver more than a guy who is staying there since 3-5 years. It's not that easy to switch. It takes lots of efforts and expertise to switch jobs. People who don't have those expertise, they only tend to stay. Also why you people don't provide good hikes to these loyal employees? You will keep exploiting them with 2-5% hike on their minimum wage job.
I have seen lots of expert people who tend to switch often and they don't face any difficulty at all. If they find that organization doesn't care about them, they just leave. Only the people with less expertise stay back. These job hoppers are very important people. Without them Organization will never care about their employees. These People leave and then organization realizes that we should care about them. No organization cares about people who stay in a same company and don't switch. Thats why they pay more to these job hopers than their existing loyal employees.
Switch doesn't matter. HR is recruiting you because of the demand. So they will check your skill set that's it.
Barely matters. I personally found the people with frequent switches more confident and do the job better with higher energy. But my advice is, do not switch for just 10-20% of hike. You can easily cover these gaps in your current company or maybe later while switching. Because increasing the companies count is really a bad ethic. If you are getting good then only switch.
Back it up with solid reason, it doesn't matter
As a hiring panelist, I was openly asked to reject candidates with too frequent switches(<2 year). Both with service based organization and US IB captive. I prefer candidates with 3+years of stability but again market trend and urge to hire matters. Always back yourself with a solid reason to switch.

Please mention your company name so that we won't even apply to such company.
There's no definition of frequent switch. It's been transformed to 'right place right time'. Work as long as you feel it's fulfilling, and at the end of the day you can reflect and feel satisfied with the effort you put. The moment this ceases to happen, switch.
Switch it barely matters
Again there will be idiots with stupid policy to block you in some companies. Overall doesn't matter however could be a deciding factor if there is a tie.
As you move into a leadership / senior role stability is very important. The company should be able to trust that you will stick. So moving too often in the long run will definitely create problems.
I have switched 3jobs in 2.7years . It doesn’t matter. Just make sure you have a good back up story

Switching too often is not a good sign on the resume. But switching organisations is very important if you want to build your expertise. It gives you a perspective from different angles as in different companies different cultures etc. It also makes you more confident. Sticking to one organisation is also good but doesn't do well for your compensation.
Switching too often is not a good option but I know a guy who has 9 years experience and is in 10th company.
Your skill, position vs package is all that matters
