Pros

Amazing retirement benefits Good location for offices Lots of opportunities to give back to community Promotes very safe work environment

Cons

All employee incentives to work there were changed/taken away. Given great vacation time but never able to use it. Impossible to move up. Upper management has started huge company wide layoffs. Drastic turnover in the last month.

Capital Group Response

Thank you for sharing your feedback, we appreciate the input we receive from associates. Providing our associates a comprehensive total rewards package, a generous amount of paid time-away, and benefits like the Capital Retirement Savings Plan are very important to us. We also understand changes in our business can create concern for our associates. Managing our business smartly to ensure we sustain a fiscally responsible organization is a top priority, in addition to delivering an exceptional client experience and offering an environment that is highly engaging for associates. It’s also essential that we evolve the way we work in response to industry trends and regulations and to ensure we continue to create exceptional value for our clients and Capital. As we look to the future we are excited about the opportunities ahead and our ability to deliver superior investment results and superior service to our clients and investors. Thank you again, we strive to create an open environment where associates have a variety of ways to share input.

Pros

Master Retirement Plan, NYSE days off, bonuses, associates are mostly good people, hiring referral bonus, scholarship, decent cafe on site is convenient

Cons

Micro-managed, treated like you’re children, lack of opportunities, zero flexibility, no life/work balance. Associate morale is terrible. Associates are not treated equally. Very little transparency with managements motives.
