What’s everyone doing in this heat??
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

This will probably disappoint you, but I don’t think EY’s culture overall is that amazing. A firm that is heavy on cost cutting, lower pay, eg no health insurance below manager, substandard pension (vs other consulting firms / banks), long working hours in some departments, low / non existent bonuses, promotions that take much longer than MBB (they’ll promise you a fast track as a carrot but it will never materialize, after you get disappointed you will quit and they replace you with another person) and quite a bit of intransparency overall.
I’m not sure how to compare tbh because I did not work in other Big4s in the UK. Based on conversations with friends from other Big 4s, it all seems very similar and the differences are probably team specific, not firm specific. One thing I would mention is that internal admin work at EY is a real pain and seems to be more so than in PwC for example, based on my convos with friends.
Ey is terrible - this notion of great culture is complete chat. Thank god I left
