Pros

There is a lot of formal training from the US office. The salary is better than other banks.

Cons

The senior management that been there for a long time. There are a lot dysfunction and drama across departments. It is about networking with the right people.

Pros

Great campus, mostly nice people on the surface, challenging work, work-life balance. Decent severance package

Cons

I (along with many others) was hired a year ago only to be laid off due yet another restructure/re-org which already happened shortly after I joined. Capital One should have clear goals when hiring new people who left a former job for a new opportunity.

Pros

The designers I worked with were top notch and the projects were challenging and meaningful in my first few years. I will forever have amazing friends and connections from Capital One. The offices are nice. Your experience will all depend on who your manager is. I had amazing managers that supported me and my career in my first couple years (but also had horrible, toxic managers that had no clue how to manage people later on.)

Cons

So much turnover and change in the 4 years I worked there. My earlier years there were amazing but things went down the tubes in the last couple years with constant org changes and leadership changes. Current leadership lacks vision and bullies people. Several issues with gender and racial bias happening from the top. Promotions are based on favoritism. Lack of clear career growth and support. Underpays compared to bay area standards. Design is going through some real issues right now, It's really sad because the people and the work were so good, but the current environment is unbearable.
