Vantaggi
I worked at Capital One for a number of years and loved my experience while I was there. If you worked hard and was motivated you could get promoted (or at least get a 5+% salary adjustment in non-promotion years). Bonuses were generous compared to other companies in the region. I went to the gym every day, took advantage of personal training and free career coaching, would often frequent the #freefood slack channel rooms to score free lunches, etc. It was a great experience aside from the standard petty office politics.
Svantaggi
The culture has gone down the drain post-COVID, especially with regards to work life balance, based on what my partner (still at Capital One) says. I asked my partner to take one day off of work to come with me to close on a house and he refused because taking a non-Friday off would be a red flag in his group. I then asked if he could take the Friday off to help move and he said that might also be a red flag. He also made it clear that based on the way his team functions, he's not planning to take more than 1 week of paternity leave next year because he doesn't want his team to use that against him in perf. I'm going to be honest, I don't even recognize this company anymore.
