Pros

Job security and competitive pay

Cons

Detrimental to mental health Convoluted performance ratings that force associates to compete with each other, common practice to down-level someone's rating if they were recently promoted even when performance hasn't changed. Everything must be done the 'Capital One Way' even though absolutely no onboarding is provided to help train new associates how things operate. New employees are on their own. Poor leadership within Compensation team and poor communication. Made things more difficult for everyone else while they received all the benefits of the hard work.

Pros

Good work life balance. Great benefits (dental, medical, other perks). Very tech forward for a financial institution

Cons

Culture could be better. For example, there could be a better effort to foster camaraderie outside of work hours

Pros

Environment was good, food was decent, free food at my location (dont know if it was allowed but it was good)

Cons

The rittenhouse location is managed by a tyrant, he is an incredibly toxic man and upper management make it the most unbearable place to work. Andy will ask you to come in on days you're not scheduled, and then hold it over your head if you don't. Talks about employees behind their backs constantly. No respect enforced employees talked about each other all the time and there was even name calling in meetings, management did nothing. Worst place I've ever worked in my life frankly and affected my mental health in the worst way. Glad to be out out of there. The place itself has potential but the management at the Rittenhouse branch and above them is absolutely terrible in every regard.
