Regardless of race, gender, identity, sexual orientation, age, ability, religion, ethnicity, national origin, or your viewpoint, we invite you to thrive and contribute at Capco. Our differences are truly our strength, and at Capco it will never be acceptable for anyone to discriminate or condone discriminatory or unfair behavior of any kind. It will never be acceptable for anyone to receive unequal recruitment, promotion, job security, pay or professional opportunities.
I reaffirm my, and Capco’s, absolute commitment to working toward a more equitable future and discrimination-free environment for all our people, our clients, and the communities we serve. We stand together as a family against injustice of any kind and are committed to playing our part to bring about positive change and build a better and more equitable future.
