Beware of HR jobs

Pros

Nothing! HR at CG is a toxic workplace. I have never worked anywhere where HR turnover is high and leadership ignores major red flags brought to their attention

Cons

Stay clear of HR here. Ironic that they look into claims of toxic work environment but they fail to acknowledge or investigate anything I’m their own dept

Pros

Compensation and benefits are great. Depending on the department, ownership of responsibilities is a positive, and collaborative environment. [Most] employees are nice, kind, supportive, and reasonable. Beautiful and well-kept office space.

Cons

It's changed in recent years and it's more of a top-down management style now. It doesn't always feel like doing the right thing, but rather the quick thing or even "because I said so." Also, it doesn't always feel like there is room to grow. People stay because of the comp and the culture is still better than a lot of other places, but upward mobility is a challenge. Sadly, diversity is not a priority, in spite of some changes in 2020. It's clear that Capital is not committed to advancing DE&I within its own leadership team, manager level and above, or within the portfolio managers/analysts.

Pros

Your coworkers will be awesome. There's a great sense of community. You can learn a lot if you put in the effort. The benefits are top notch.

Cons

Management is out of touch. There's a lot of politics, you have to play the game to get promoted. They often make you feel like just another cog.
