Pros

Good benefits and vacation time

Cons

I left my most recent position with capital one justly because of the manager. She was never there (literally) to give any direction. Also when I took the promotion I was promised a level up come end of the year, mid year through was told that wouldn’t happen till maybe the following year. The straw that broke the camels back was when I had my 1 on 1 with my manager and she would constantly refer to everything as “gay” and she saw the look on my face and even though she knew I was openly gay, said “oh it’s no big deal, it’s just something I say” and continued on. Worked at cap one for a combined total of 4.5 years

Pros

Some of the smartest individuals in their fields. The focus is always “forward” and the company is willing to adopt new tech to stay ahead for the purposes of the company’s (key word there) benefit. Great PTO and benefits.

Cons

The company’s drive to keep itself moving forward has caused it to regress in other aspects. As a leading tech company first, and leading bank second, it’s embarrassing what their stance is on hybrid and remote work. The company can easily accommodate remote options for their employees not near main offices, but chooses not to. I am relocating to a major city with no major CapOne presence and their response was “too bad, either fly up weekly or you’ll be terminated for not meeting the hybrid requirements”. It’s embarrassing because most of my week is remote anyways. I wonder how many current and past employees have been impacted, and I’m worried about how much talent they’ll be pushing away in the coming years.
