Pros

Reasonable compensation. Young and smart co-workers

Cons

1) Dirty office politics. Some co-workers will bad-mouth you behind your back or complain to your manager for tiny little things. Some favored employees are asked by management to keep an eye on you while pretending to be your "friend". Be aware! 2) Inefficient training for employees. 3) Too many employees have such a heavy workload that they work late into the evenings (often more than 45 hours a week) without overtime pay whatsoever. 4) If you're not a business analyst (BA), too bad for you! You may do a lot of the hard work and do get recognized from time to time. But most roles feel like the auxiliary to BA's. If you're not a BA, the company culture will make you feel so Unimportant. Even if you get decent pay, what does it help if they constantly make you feel that you're so Unimportant to the company?

Pros

Some of the smartest individuals in their fields. The focus is always “forward” and the company is willing to adopt new tech to stay ahead for the purposes of the company’s (key word there) benefit. Great PTO and benefits.

Cons

The company’s drive to keep itself moving forward has caused it to regress in other aspects. As a leading tech company first, and leading bank second, it’s embarrassing what their stance is on hybrid and remote work. The company can easily accommodate remote options for their employees not near main offices, but chooses not to. I am relocating to a major city with no major CapOne presence and their response was “too bad, either fly up weekly or you’ll be terminated for not meeting the hybrid requirements”. It’s embarrassing because most of my week is remote anyways. I wonder how many current and past employees have been impacted, and I’m worried about how much talent they’ll be pushing away in the coming years.
