Pros

Large UK presence, diverse opportunities, satisfactory salary (assuming you have at least 4 years good experience) and relaxed work culture.

Cons

Too many cowboys who think they know it. Not sure whether this is due to the company's growth strategy throgh mergers and acquisitions (rather than through organic growth). But definitely there is a mix of super great guys and super not-so-great guys. Unfortunately, I experienced working with the latter more often than wished.

Pros

Integrity, strong work ethic and strength in their market. With an obvious public sector bias, process is key so it's important that employees are happy working within a rigid structure. If so, you'll enjoy your time at Capita. I found Capita to be a very honest employer who communicated well.

Cons

Rigid managerial structure. Strong delivery base but not much innovation permitted. Historically, very risk averse although this is now changing I understand. Major contracts (as will any organisation) tend to drag resource from smaller projects to ensure consistency of delivery, which can be incredibly frustrating - but that's an industry issue rather than a Capita issue...
