Disregard their IT recruiting pitch. Capital One is a bank, not a startup, not an IT company

Pros

Great work-life balance, and benefits are world-class. Resources are not an issue.

Cons

Unbalanced ethnicity distribution. If you like working in Little India, C1 is for you.

Advice to Management

Remove politics and brown-nosing from what should be engineering decisions, led by engineers, not managers whose idea of technical rigor is a Gantt chart.

The majority of middle management are rent seekers. They're not needed, even for downturn buffer. Dump them, at least double market cap as a result.
