Pros

Decent pay, nice office, good coworkers depending on your team.

Cons

There are plenty of other reviews that go into detail about why you shouldn’t work at Capital One, so I would recommend reading those. In short, performance management is a joke and ~15% of the company is laid off every 6 months. Management makes decisions that consistently go against what the employees want. In general just a very toxic environment with too much politics for the compensation. It’s like they want to be Amazon, while paying employees half of what Amazon does.

Pros

Environment was good, food was decent, free food at my location (dont know if it was allowed but it was good)

Cons

The rittenhouse location is managed by a tyrant, he is an incredibly toxic man and upper management make it the most unbearable place to work. Andy will ask you to come in on days you're not scheduled, and then hold it over your head if you don't. Talks about employees behind their backs constantly. No respect enforced employees talked about each other all the time and there was even name calling in meetings, management did nothing. Worst place I've ever worked in my life frankly and affected my mental health in the worst way. Glad to be out out of there. The place itself has potential but the management at the Rittenhouse branch and above them is absolutely terrible in every regard.
