Pros

I worked as a contractor, so my experiences are from that perspective. I found everyone I worked with to be pleasant and reasonable. It is a very collaborative environment based on team work. I found it refreshing to be working within a group of intelligent professionals.

Cons

There is an incredible amount of Capital One acronyms. Learning the 'language' is a challenge, especially for contractors. Employees go through training classes to bring them up to speed, but as a contractor you're on your own. Because it is a collaborative environment, it is the land of cubbies and open work areas; so if you need your own space you might not be happy.

Pros

- Never boring - room for ideas - a chance to make ideas happen - not so organized... - Great work life balance (flexibility in work hours, on site gym and showrss, can skip to take kids to a doctor without feeling guilty).

Cons

Overall its slowing down. Not the same opptys we used to have. Its not really clear how becoming a bank with branches will change the soul of the company

Pros

the people, they really are a special group and put together they create something special, work becomes fun in both an intellectually stimulating way and also in a way where its ok to have a bit of banter with a few friends

Cons

if you dont fit the image they have of what you need to be they will keep you hanging, they are a bit closed minded as to what a successful person should be and have definately swung too far one way, it will all balance out though
