Toxic culture overshadowed by decent compensation

Pros

Compensation is pretty comparable to the area

Cons

Performance management is killer. If you have an all-star team they will try to find any little imperfection in your work to grade you lower. If you don' have a manager that will stick their neck out for you, prepare to get PIP'd ( they also tend to PIP newer folks due to politics rather than actually try to onboard them). Working while management is breathing down your neck has made the culture extremely toxic here. If you want to survive here, be prepared to play the politics game-work has become increasingly secondary here

A Great Place to Work Except For Cutthroat Performance Management

Pros

Great, friendly coworkers, always eager to help. Nice perks like corporate phones and health clinics near the largest campuses. A non-hierarchical culture with many open exchange of ideas across different levels.

Cons

The performance management process, which relies on a forced distribution and changing expectations from year to year, can be brutal. You basically spend every workday of the year worrying about how your performance may affect your rating. Capital One is now misusing parts of its performance management process, originally intended to dismiss only associates displaying gross incompetence, to instead reduce headcount en masse. This is a morale killer, not only to those associates who lose their jobs, but also the people managers who have to execute this process and the remaining associates wondering if they're next on the chopping block.
