Ventajas

I really believe that Capital One hires smart people. That doesn't necessarily mean that they are enjoyable to work with but the average person there "gets it" in my opinion. There is a lot of flexibility in terms of work style and how you perform your work. The benefits are good as well. In general Capital One is a laid-back place to work except when there is an important project to deliver within a certain time. Then it is probably about the same stress levels as any corporation.

Desventajas

I think it's the work. Ultimately it is a financial services corporation. You're not working on the next iPhone or consumer product that will delight the world. You are working on fine-tuning numbers to bring in more dollars for the company. The performance management process is a bit of a pain as it is quite a bit of work and not fully transparent. The opportunity for advancement has declined significantly since 2001 due to outsourcing and the economy.

Ventajas

Pay can be decent compared to GovCon. Some people are a pleasure to work with. Other non-pay related incentives.

Desventajas

Never heard more nonsensical topics during meetings; people sharing their sexual preferences, flaunting overly dramatic personal lifestyle decisions, diversity to the point of failure, etc. Hearing the term "white guilt" in a professional setting was, well, pretty unprofessional. Stack ranking for performance reviews is a mess. Someone has to have an "F" regardless of their performance because that is what their line of business is allotted. Be prepared to be held responsible for actions any Sr Leadership would just sweep under the rug under their own circumstances. If a manager doesn't like you, regardless of your productivity, you're toast unless you're able to find another LoB to support. HR / AR are just a check in the box and will most likely point you from one to the other and back again without resolving any issues. You'll find yourself curious as to what leadership does as they continue to scrape managerial responsibilities from their plate, to yours. Last but certainly not least; you may find yourself working hard on a project; nights and weekends, just in case that work life balance is feeling a little too perfect. Fret not, someone will surely assist in taking credit for the hard work you've put in. I'm sure none of these things will happen to you, though. Best of luck!
