Capital One reviews

The department I worked in didn't support their people and kept throwing them under the bus. I would be careful about who you report to as the company is growing rapidly and there are a lot of unqualified individuals in management and senior leadership positions.

The last five years have brought a few changes: First, a number of extremely competent senior leaders have left the company. In addition, career advancement at all levels has slowed significantly and, as at many large companies, become more based on executive favor than competencies or results. Depending on your role and your management chain, you can have either a favorable work life balance or find yourself working I-Banker hours but without any commiserate recompense. Promotions lately tend to be based more and more on political positioning and executive favor; as a result senior and middle management tend to lack fundamental management skills, leading to low morale and turnover in middle and junior buckets. If you're ready to play the game you can do well, but don't expect much career mileage out of the quality or quantity of your work.
