Capital One Senior Associate Data Engineer reviews

WLB not good for a bank

- Getting promoted is tough. It often feels less about the work you do and more about who sees it. Your manager has to be your hype person; if they stay quiet, your career does too. - Job titles can be misleading. A Data Scientist might spend all day writing SQL, while a Business Analyst somehow ends up helping with machine learning. The title says one thing, the calendar says another. - Remote work is mostly gone. The laptop is still portable, but apparently you are not. - There is a fair amount of office politics. Sometimes doing the work is only half the job; the other half is making sure the right people know you did it. - Data teams do not always get the respect they deserve. Business teams often treat them less like strategic partners and more like “the people who fix the spreadsheet.”
