Pros

- Work with some really smart people - If in the right team, you get to work on the highest needle moving work - huge org, so lots of opportunities to move within

Cons

- very top down heavy, little to no room for innovation from the bottom - of recent, it has become very waterfall vs agile/nimble. Things move slowly - not really at the forefront of latest technology, trying to dab but leadership is hesitant to hire from within to let employees who've been there for several years grow and learn something new - VERY SLOW promotions! Some people have been there for 20+ years and not been promoted in 10+ years!

Pros

Note- last year there was 2018, would not allow that option. Employee engagement always high priority.

Cons

Note- last year there was 2018, would not allow that option. Highly focused on sales vs service.

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.
