Pros

Great location Beautiful campus Fitness Center!!! Genuinely great people to work with Ethical management Love the PTO!!!

Cons

"Dead weight" is allowed to linger Occasional gross misalignment of managers to teams Too many analytical numbers geeks who don't/can't think creatively or innovatively NOTHING is ever launched on time -- truly a "hurry-up-and-wait" environment during which time, our competition almost always beats us out the door with a better product

Pros

There are still great employees working at Discover despite looming layoffs due to Capital One acquisition.

Cons

Morale is at an all-time low, integration with Capital One has caused significant anxiety and confusion.
