Toxic place to work - Anonymous employee First Capitol Consulting Employee Review

First Capitol is a business that's been around for a while, and is now growing like never before. It won't be a "small" business for very much longer--so if one is looking for a well-established company with strong opportunities for career growth, this is the place to be. First Capitol is indeed a technology company; it has developed cutting-edge software that no other company has, and has more on the way. Technology people at First Capitol get to have an immediate effect on the business and get to build innovative products and services that will change the face of an entire industry--immensely helping all manner of businesses. What's better than that?

It's not silicon beach. Is that a pro? Could be. It's a rapidly growing company and change and turnover is a part of that.

I came to FCCI because I was blown away by the intelligence and creativity of the staff. Nearly everyday I am wowed by the smart people that work here - not just in conventional terms - but an additional willingness to challenge themselves to think outside the box. An additional important factor for me is that this company does social good. The products FCCI has developed, such as the Work Opportunity Tax Credit service and the Affordable Care Act compliance service help employers do great things for their employees. FCCI is a regtech company dedicated to using its data consolidation and analysis platforms to do things like create new products, make existing processes faster, and remove financial barriers to compliance with government programs and laws. This is a great place to work for people interested in doing things no one else is doing.

One thing that I have read in other reviews is that there is a sense of favoritism. I don't think this is right. My view is that there are some people at this company who have literally fought tooth and nail for its success over many years. Although the company was founded in 1999, it really started to flourish in 2012 - 2013 when leadership began exploring ACA reporting and expanding the WOTC services. The good thing about this is that there is plenty of room for people to succeed and the company outlook is great.
