Pros

Work life balance/flexible work schedule Work from home options Benefits Willingness to spend money on training Good executive management team

Cons

No defined career path Promotions are based on who you know and not results oriented or how hard you work Middle management is a joke and has been put there because of relationship with upper management regardless of if they have leadership capabilities or not Salaries do not match industry Focused more on business model than technology that supports the function of that business

Pros

There are still great employees working at Discover despite looming layoffs due to Capital One acquisition.

Cons

Morale is at an all-time low, integration with Capital One has caused significant anxiety and confusion.
