Pros

Challenging Projects Good Tech Stack Chance of getting good colleagues

Cons

Worst Performance Management System. (Political, zero work life balance, love splitting hair analysis and will squeeze every minute of your life to get that. if you are not in your manager/skips good book he/she wont let you switch switch teams, keep you stagnant at your position for multiple years, provide minor/no increase annual salary, they mask firing by putting people in coaching plans, giving them below strong rating - making the place too difficult to survive in. absolutely toxic - wouldnt work here for a billion dollars

Pros

While I worked at Capital One, my team was super helpful and collaborative, there were lots of ways to get involved outside of my day-to-day, and WLB was great. Pay was less than FAANG but still pretty solid.

Cons

Stacked ranking is killing the company, especially when leadership makes poor decisions and has to change the amount of poor performers from 8% to 20% as an excuse to lay people off. WLB is definitely team dependent, and performance reviews often come down to who you know, how well your manager can vouch for you, and how hard the other people on your level work.

Pros

Pay was good but slightly under my younger peers.

Cons

As someone over 45 they proved time and again they were not interested in me. They only want people under 40 unless you are In very senior leadership roles . They did everything they could to make work uncomfortable and did not support me in any sort of career advancement.
