Pros

The people The work-life balance The 401k match

Cons

When I first joined Capital One, the recruiter promised me that I would be paid a generous severance if I was made redundant. However, Capital One recently decided that they wanted to replace me with a more senior level employee, and so they engineered a scheme to put me on a "coaching plan" for an employee 2 levels my senior. When I don't meet their expectations, I will have the option to resign (and get no severance) or get fired for "poor performance," receiving only a 6 week severance and a Performance Improvement Plan that would forbid me from ever working there again.

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.
