Pros

Great pay, benefits and investment in personal development and training. Some of the nicest, smartest people A regular promotion cycle means you could get promoted once a year if you’re in the right place at the right time with the right manager

Cons

The zero vision or direction, it’s led by a team of “mates” who make lots of money but make no real decisions. The CEO is a great public speaker but never commits to making any real changes to benefit customers or grow the business. Ties to the US means it will never live up to what they make you believe it will be. An unbelievable amount of red tape means it is almost impossible to get anything done. too many priorities, the priorities changing, the business having no vision and leadership being paralysed by risk, fear of failing mean it’s going no where fast. If you want to make lots of money, stay at middle management and launch zero products then it’s perfect. If you want a fast paced, innovative tech company (which this pretends to be) DON’T join this company.

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.
