I saw a Sr. Software Engineer job posting for Capital One. How big is the Seattle office? What are the products being worked on here? How do you like working in a satellite office? Do am the decisions get made in VA?
Fintech is not lucrative
I would not recommend Capital one Seattle! They can close down that office anytime they want. I don’t feel comfortable working at Capital one anymore!
Ouch, ok. I hope they closer it down. What products are owned out of this office? How big is the office currently?
Not many! There was layoffs recently. Mostly investment banking I would guess.

Why blaming men for being incels is wrong
I can't help you much. Why leave Microsoft for Capital One? As an SDE you will be a 2nd/3rd class employee in a not the top level banking sector!
Am not an SDE and am fairly senior in Msft. I was curious because of the job posting. Personally, I want to move to a different industry that pays well, mostly fintech. Plus growth in msft is slow.
I see. Just curious, MSFT is a big desirable company and the only reason it is banged everywhere is for it's low pays. Why does it pay non-competitive salary? It is doing quite well in business.
