Pros

Capital One has excellent employees overall. Talented and good to work with. Management has done a good job of keeping the company afloat during hard times.

Cons

Career advancement has been minimal past two years, and the process seems objective, but too much subjectivity and top down influence comes into play behind the scenes. New hires are given higher positons and pay than current employees who are held to a higher standard.
