Pros

Capital One might not be the biggest name in financial services, but that only makes it somewhat more willing to try new things and step out of the box a little more often than some of its competitors. Most decisions are made with a good deal of analysis and information about the market, which makes shots in the dark few and far between. You're surrounded by smart people. Not only are other analysts capable, but so is most of management, having risen through the ranks themselves. This helps give the impression that there is upward mobility within the company and gives associates something to strive for.

Kontras

Capital One has re-orgs on a fairly regular basis. It takes a while to fully understand what your new role is inside the company, and sometimes by the time you get settled and understand the different aspects of your new job, you've changed roles again. Rapid changes to your managers might also prove to be a hindrance to getting promoted - if your new manager hasn't worked with you in the past, it feels fairly hard to get recognized - I have had very competent coworkers who have been in this situation. Lastly, you are surrounded by smart people, and you are often second guessed by your management - but that serves to keep you on your toes and to produce airtight arguments.

Pros

Pay can be decent compared to GovCon. Some people are a pleasure to work with. Other non-pay related incentives.

Kontras

Never heard more nonsensical topics during meetings; people sharing their sexual preferences, flaunting overly dramatic personal lifestyle decisions, diversity to the point of failure, etc. Hearing the term "white guilt" in a professional setting was, well, pretty unprofessional. Stack ranking for performance reviews is a mess. Someone has to have an "F" regardless of their performance because that is what their line of business is allotted. Be prepared to be held responsible for actions any Sr Leadership would just sweep under the rug under their own circumstances. If a manager doesn't like you, regardless of your productivity, you're toast unless you're able to find another LoB to support. HR / AR are just a check in the box and will most likely point you from one to the other and back again without resolving any issues. You'll find yourself curious as to what leadership does as they continue to scrape managerial responsibilities from their plate, to yours. Last but certainly not least; you may find yourself working hard on a project; nights and weekends, just in case that work life balance is feeling a little too perfect. Fret not, someone will surely assist in taking credit for the hard work you've put in. I'm sure none of these things will happen to you, though. Best of luck!
