NOT a best place to work

Pros

Capital contributes 15% of your salary to your retirement account, regardless of whether you contribute to your 401(k).

Cons

Many managers don't know what they're doing.

Pros

Capital Group Associates are caring and extremely capable.

Cons

Associates have a difficult time completing their work and progressing in their careers, because Senior Leaders do not lead, they manage without understanding or integration. Compensation and job descriptions are extremely misleading. Be very careful about Job descriptions. Departments have reorganized at least five times in the past five years.

Old fashion place for “coasters”

Pros

Money I have a 20 word minimum here so, I have to keep writing something even though there is literally no other “pro”

Cons

This review is specifically regarding the NAD/Marketing department. Everything else. There is so much process and politics, that it discourages “good talent” from trying. Eventually, everyone just accepts they can’t get anything done and becomes someone who collects a check and does the minimum to not get fired. Company culture strongly encourages a hierarchical structure. No room for innovation - too much process, pride, and fear of failure. Management is TERRIBLE. Extremely condescending, only looking out for their own interest. They do not foster talent/career trajectory here. I don’t think they know how.
