Is the culture tech or bank? Aka is it good or bad?
That's like asking what's Uber Eats and McDonald's like
Totally!
Search is your friend
Is this a joke ? That’s like comparing old McDonald’s food ( capital one) vs a nice 5 star gourmet meal (2s) I’ve been to two sigma’s onsite and the people there are night and day (very friendly and strong technically) different than the vast majority at capital one ( average to mediocre )
Fine, but you don’t have to spit in your dinner plate.
Clearly it’s not so bad if your tag line still says Capital One.
Did you mean to say citadel? LOL
>implying tech culture is good
I was gonna say. Finance and Tech have been converging on the same culture for years. It's just a bunch of bros walking around with inflated perceptions of their actual value, caring more about TC and company names than what they actually work on. Maybe you still have more video games in the office with tech, but finance is better gender diversity - not a bad tradeoff.
You say that like there's anything wrong with valuing TC over what you work on
Capital One is easy to be successful if you are smart and motivated. The work life balance is solid. With that said the people are solid, but well below FANG levels.
This truly is a post to check how many people are starting at phone instead of working!!
One of these is not like the other (hedge fund vs credit cards mostly)
Oh. I was on the same page until you said "hedge fund vs credit cards" -- I was thinking that they were unalike in that the quality of the job is so inequivalent
This is also the case.
