Pros

I really like the opportunity that I have their to balance work and my home life. It's rare that people get this type of opportunity

Cons

Although at times the hours can be long there is a fair amount of work/life balance to offset this situation.

Pros

Lots of contract opportunities when nothing else is available in town.

Cons

Very high turnover for both contractors and employees. The place is a heartless meat grinder. It is important to trim low performers, but frequently the CapOne pruner seems to be random. Their recruiting process seems to target aggressive and arrogant people. The performance management process keeps people on their toes, but also creates destructive politics and incentives (making your colleges look bad makes space for yourself higher up in the rankings).

Pros

Capital One has really good benefits and excellent work life balance. The holidays are a plus because you receive time off for just about all federal holidays, President's Day, Columbus Day, etc., including the national holidays. The yearly bonus is great plus.

Cons

The performance evaluation process is not entirely fair. It's highly subjective and promotions are few and far between. Compensation is not below average in the industry (low base pay), however a bonus is given yearly but not guaranteed and it's solely based on your performance evaluation. Re-orgs are constant and at times you could have 2-3 managers in one year, which I think hinders career growth.
