Vantaggi

1. Good Work life balance 2. Good Pay 3. Benefits 4. Perks 5. Good Teams 6. Good learning opportunities - sometimes you will be without any work for few months altogether, that gives you ample time to skill up, though there will be no opportunities to work on what you learn

Svantaggi

1. Constant Re-Orgs 2. Lack of clear direction from leadership 3. People with technical skills are not rewarded, people with social skills skyrocket in their career 4. Lack of good technical intents, be prepared to sit idle most of the time until leadership tries to get intent (am a java dev, but last year i did manual testing for most part and 0 API or microservice work) 5. Layoffs here and there, and no clear career path direction (all API teams were converted to mobile teams in chicago downtown, by teaching android and IOS development - you have 6 years of technical experience in one area, so what?? start from 0 now) 6. Poor performance management - criteria for this changes every year - if you can speak well and show off others work as yours - this is the best place to be.

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.
