Pros

Pay is on the higher end of the spectrum.

Cons

No work life balance even though you will hear that a lot. You are compared against everyone within the same organization as you even if they are doing different jobs. So at whatever level you are be prepared to be rated against everyone at that level and you could find yourself at the bottom based on your job functions and then Capital One loves to put you on a personal improvement plan (PIP) and once you are on that basically you will be let go because they make it impossible to get off it.

Pros

Note- last year there was 2018, would not allow that option. Employee engagement always high priority.

Cons

Note- last year there was 2018, would not allow that option. Highly focused on sales vs service.

Pros

Environment was good, food was decent, free food at my location (dont know if it was allowed but it was good)

Cons

The rittenhouse location is managed by a tyrant, he is an incredibly toxic man and upper management make it the most unbearable place to work. Andy will ask you to come in on days you're not scheduled, and then hold it over your head if you don't. Talks about employees behind their backs constantly. No respect enforced employees talked about each other all the time and there was even name calling in meetings, management did nothing. Worst place I've ever worked in my life frankly and affected my mental health in the worst way. Glad to be out out of there. The place itself has potential but the management at the Rittenhouse branch and above them is absolutely terrible in every regard.
