Vantaggi

Not the highest in the industry, but decent offer for first year join contingent on staying for a year.

Svantaggi

Verbally abused as a newcomer because of "cultural differences." You are reminded constantly from day one that your job is at risk. The disposable attitude towards developers leads to most people owning apps that they do not understand, and fear of being fired prevents people from doing proper development. Knowledge transfer is minimal because bringing others to your level means your job is at risk. Stack ranking is to the detriment of the product and development experience. Teamwork is not promoted. Low innovation room on majority of teams. Required to be available off hours and over weekend in addition to normal on-call rotations. In office hours are required, but still you won't be working closely with your team.

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.
