Vantaggi

A great place to intern or start your career due to its great management and technology rotation programs. Lots of great learning opportunities to pick up relevant skills. In most lines of business, the company's tech stack is pretty modern. The company is also fully invested in transitioning into the cloud, and makes plenty of learning resources available. Competitive salary relative to other commercial banks, especially for entry-level positions. Above average benefits: health care, life insurance, parental leave, stock purchase program, tuition reimbursement, FSA, and a FANTASTIC 401k.

Svantaggi

There is a substantial level of politics and nepotism within the senior and executive ranks, and the effects of that are apparent. Reorganizations and departures at the VP+ level are a common occurrence, and you will find managers who possess no technical background leading engineering teams. Stack ranking and all of the arguments and backstabbing that ensues. Uncompetitive salary relative to technology companies recruiting for the same engineering talent. Don't expect to receive any substantial amount of equity (RSUs or options) unless you're going into mid to senior-level management. You have to stay at the company for 2 years before that fantastic 401k vests.

Vantaggi

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.

Svantaggi

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.
