Pros

Great benefits, excellent people and a strong training environment. Company promotes flexible work hours and is quick to identify high performers.

Cons

The historical growth rate pre-2005 has allowed many employees to switch positions frequently 2-3 years to gather knowledge and reduce burnout. The growth rate and subsequent reduction in opportunities is falling in line with the 'big banks'.

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.
