Pros: The people I work with are cool and supportive.

Cons: - Performance management can be hard to deal with.

Pros: Good environment to work in. Really, only the environment is good.

Cons: Except for the environment, there is nothing else worth it. Everything else is bad.

Pros: Very nice working environment, startup setup, with on-site bars, free cookies, soft drinks, and good coffee in New York offices. Decent benefits such as medical insurance, 401k, and PTO. Integrate with new technologies fast, especially highly recognized in the financial industry for adopting AWS, thus consolidating on-prem data centers. The CEO has very good vision and is widely respected within and outside the company. On the tech side, the company is well-known and respected for innovations and quickly adopting new technologies.

Cons: Not all groups are equal among groups and teams. The tech side, Cards and Retail bank, may be very strong, while other groups such as Commercial bank and EDS might be old-school and trying to catch up. Expect drastic changes. Maybe no one really knows the direction for advancing technologies. With so-called innovation and transformation, they will keep bringing unqualified new people to Dir/Sr. Mgr roles and drive 1+ years' veterans out. You will find yourself to be one of the few people with 2+ years' tenure in a Capital One meeting room, maybe due to immigration status. Even if you like the company and try to be really innovative, you will be shut down by your skip-level "Gang of Powers" tech leaders, since they don't want veterans to work on anything innovative. Worst of all, they will bash the guys who left the company to survive HR surveys because they know there's no way you can fight them if you choose to leave.
