Business Outlook
Pros
Company-wide, the branded experience is preached through and through. Best marketers. Best brand marketers. User-centered design is preached through and through. Despite being a financial focused company, Discover has access to some of the best innovation UX design-wise.
Cons
Little to no focus on external multicultural efforts, or internal diversity programs. Some departments overwork their people, while others allow (and encourage) incompetence to stay and flourish. The priority on marketing leaves little room for back-end innovation, and marketers seem to make the "tech calls" when they are not qualified to do so. Can be clique'y.
