Pros

Tech forward, sound mission statement, great benefits

Cons

Overaggressive delivery timelines, risk analysis and best practices ignored if it conflicts with a milestone or deliverable. VP rubberstamp appovals are frequent regardless if potential impact. Horrific mid year and eoy review process. Recruit top talent but force calibration to meet numbers. Upper management tweaks senior management ratings based on their viewpoint. Removes credibility of reviewing managers for their direct reports. No longer about the person doing the job and what they are delivering; everyone is just an employee ID, especially if you are not located in McLean or Plano.

Pros

Worked with some of the best people in the industry. Was a great starting place to learn the basics of banking.

Cons

I was one of the many people who were laid off recently. With Capital One making it's transition into a new system and closing almost half its branches. I was manipulated into working 6 days a week for 14 weeks straight by management, thinking I'd make it somewhere. If you want to join a company that throws whatever at a wall just to see what sticks, be my guest.
