Pros

Capital One has great benefits, great salary and incentives. There are opportunities to work from home, training opportunities, and the facilities are top notch. I've also had the pleasure of working with many bright, fun people!

Cons

The hiring process is long and slow. Lots of people seem to consistently work really long hours. And it seems every couple of years or so layoffs (of varying sizes) happen.

Pros

The recruiting process is fairly stringent, so the people you end up working with are of high caliber. A great part of the culture is the 'fun' element and even senior managers do not take themselves too seriously. Makes for a highly enjoyable environment where people focus on delivering results while making sure they are enjoying themselves.

Cons

Within certain groups (esp. marketing) there is quite a lot of competition among employees, with plenty type-A people pushing ahead to get promoted as fast as possible and ahead of everyone else.
