Pros

- Good health insurance - Lots of different tech stacks / concerns

Cons

- PIPs handed out like candy - Management / managers GREATLY affect how your experience is, moreso than average, I'd say. - Management under a lot of pressure - Follows tech trends as though they are a tech company (including layoffs) despite not being a tech company - Disingenuous culture - Personally experienced discrimination based on background

Pros

Pay is on the higher end of the spectrum.

Cons

No work life balance even though you will hear that a lot. You are compared against everyone within the same organization as you even if they are doing different jobs. So at whatever level you are be prepared to be rated against everyone at that level and you could find yourself at the bottom based on your job functions and then Capital One loves to put you on a personal improvement plan (PIP) and once you are on that basically you will be let go because they make it impossible to get off it.

Pros

Work is interesting and capital one always seems to try new things.

Cons

Stack ranking is awful here. Even if you meet your goals established from mid year reviews, by the time year end comes leadership will move the goal post and say you need to do more. Theyre constantly comparing you against your peers.
