Capital One

Agile & cloud-focused (although legacy systems still exist, there is massive buy-in from the CEO down on focusing on using modern cloud-native architectures and cloud platforms).

Large company (never concerns about there being work to do; ability to move around different teams and departments can help keep things fresh).

Work-life balance (both including expected working hours/time-off, as well as the ability to be involved in volunteering, learning opportunities, or side-of-desk projects during work hours).

Benefits (very competitive salary for the area + good financial/retirement benefits, good healthcare and personal options).

Performance rating system (a certain percentage of employees must be ranked at certain performance ratings, including negative ratings, and promotion standards and opportunities seem to vary widely depending on your part of the company).

Large company (decision-making and coordination between parts can feel cumbersome depending on the scope of the project you're working on).

Beyond being a large company, the financial industry has steep regulations which further govern what is and isn't possible (making it hard at times to scope down MVPs to quick releases on the way to an incrementally more robust build out).
