Vantaggi
Capital One is a great company to work for and like other companies has its own share of challenges. It has a rigorous interview process that is designed to select associates that like most likely thrive in its unique culture. Company pays fairly as compared to comparative positions. Associates are given good opportunities to make an impact on company's goals which often includes contributing to big complex projects. Leadership is very approachable also facilitated by open seating environment. Overall good work environment.
Svantaggi
Career growth is challenging as promotions are super slow. There is also disparity in how company treats and rewards analysts vs. non-analysts (almost feels like class system). Associates new out of grad schools and at entry level positions have faster growth path there by "clogging" at mid level management positions which is likely to worsen as overall company growth slows down.
