Pros

Nothing is good here at CapitalOne Canada

Cons

Incompetent Managers Toxic work culture All the best work happens in USA. Folks in Canada only tweak it. Worst employer in Canada - relies on USA rating to lure talent but cannot retain them They give you a hefty sign on bonus that you have to return if you leave. Most folks use up the bonus before they realize the hell hole they have gotten themselves into. Attrition is through the roof. HR and leadership don’t care

Great engineers. Descent regular engineers and life work balance.

OK place to work but don't expect job security

Master software engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Resources are pretty much unlimited. If you need something, you'll get it. It might take some time though.

Cons

Projects were pretty mundane. Mostly work on new regulatory changes. If they decide your product is done, you're done too. You don't get reassigned, you get laid off.
