Pros

Work life balance can be quite good at time. Also the people who work there are very smart. There is a strong focus on learning and growing within the company. If you find a good team and good work it can be fantastic

Cons

In general people are not responsible for the outcomes of their work. There is a real lack of connection between what we produce and what actually happens. Additionally, your success will largely be determined by the specific projects you are assigned to. As it is a bit of an experimental business, many of these will fail. So a really good analyst can get screwed because his project doesn't work while a poor analyst may succeed beyond imagination.

Pros

Nice people and truly great work life balance (can be team dependent). Most people are in office 2-3 times a week. Food options are decent (6.8/10) but not as subsidized as I would prefer although they are less pricey than eating out at a Cava/Chipotle.

Cons

Not many, don't have anything to say.

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.
