It helps that the company is a familiar name in the US
Twice a year stack ranking, limited career growth, lack of transparency in performance management

Capital one is laying off their entire agility department total head count isn’t known, but it isn’t because of the economy! Very sorry to hear the news. If anyone has agility roles, please post. #layoffs #layoff
I see that Capital One is hiring a lot of folks from top tech companies like Google, Amazon, Uber, PayPal etc. How’s the tech culture there? Would you recommend to non-banking folks?
A bit of a long post, but I’d like to share some happy news! I applied to Capital One for a SM of Product role and just signed my offer letter today - I could not be happier. I understand some may look at this as a “downgrade” in some ways, but if you knew how miserable I am in my current role, you...Read more
NVIDIA has a much better reputation, Capital One hired as a Chief Product Officer and Chief Data Scientist two VPs from Amazon and its market cap is very low (40b$)
Did capital one layoff thousands of employees yesterday? Heard it from a friend and she was impacted and I don't see any news.
Got SDE2 offer at Amazon AWS and Senior Software Engineer offer at Capital One. Amazon TC is more than Capital One but lots of horror stories at Amazon and apparently better WLB at Capital One. Is taking the lower TC worth it? current TC 160K, 3 YOE, dont need visa
I just wanted to warn anybody who might read this now or in the future to never ever join Capital One if you have any other better offers. This place is the worst. Here are some reasons why: 1. Stack ranking twice a year with results in anywhere from 6-20+% of the population forced into the "below...Read more

Capital One to acquire Discover for $35.3 billion. https://www.cnbc.com/2024/02/19/capital-one-acquiring-discover-financial-services-report-says.html
After several layoffs earlier this year now CapitalOne forced everyone with a below strong performance rating to be PIPed. Almost 15% of the work force was marked below strong this mid year cycle. Poor management making poor decisions once again... Not a great company to work for.
Would love to understand more from current employees how your experience is at Capital One. Would you recommend it to your friends? Thanks in advanced!
Is it worth the move? Recruiter reached out to me to schedule interviews but I am debating whether I should even bother. It seems like you get faster raises and better pay, and they are the hottest employer in the DFW area at the moment. Tech stacks at Toyota are the same though. Upside to Toyota is...Read more
Just got a Sr.Manager offer from C1 today. Thoughts on capital one’s WLB, latest performance review process, PIP, layoff, culture, stack ranking? It seems like they are doing layoffs/pips in the name of high bar. Was very certain on joining but latest posts on blind are shaking my confidence. Upda...Read more
