Advice to Management

Capital One is truly a company going downhill, attempting to turn into Amazon. However, Capital One is not Amazon and boasts a collection of incompetent managers who couldn't survive at Amazon.

My last manager barely showed up to work (not kidding, took 3 months off, then was always "sick" weekly). My whole team complained to upper management and HR, but nothing happened. We were loaded with his work as he pretended to contribute in meetings to leadership. He went on to receive an "Above Strong" at Mid-Year.

Rich and Execs, you have to do a better job to hold your leadership accountable. Your leaders shouldn't be on LinkedIn all day gossiping and boasting work they don't do, besides working. Clean house and reset. Trust the AAS.
