Pros

People that work here are smart and like their jobs. Very collaborative environment. Easy to manage work/life balance with flexible schedule and ability to work at home.

Cons

Company doesn't really value "ground up experience." After reaching the Associate/Sr. Associate level, a lot of people leave Capital One to work someone else for a year and then come back to make $20-30k more a year.

Pros

People were smart and like their jobs. Opportunity to change roles every year to try new areas, even across business lines. Job is very flexible to personal needs or work from home desires.

Cons

The culture is a little political. Difficult to get the ball rolling on something new/different. Many layers of management before getting to a decision maker. Headquarters in Tysons Corner, not a desirable place in my opinion.

Pros

Diversity of talent and ideas Forward thinking Open door management culture Focus on continuing education Compeling company mission Vast array of associate benefits Very competitive pay structure for Richmond VA area

Cons

Burdensome (but generally fair) performance management process that makes otherwise 'A' players feel like 'B' or C' players. Coordinates and incentivizes line of business behaviors, versus customer centric behaviors (but this changing).
