Pros

Casual dress code - which is sometimes taken too casually! Decent number of PTO days - 25 to start Just starting Work From Home program

Cons

JUST starting Work From Home program - generally WAY behind the times Micro-management abounds here! Middle-management is the worst I have ever seen in a corporate culture. Lots of mediocre people who are on power trips bc they have a 'manager' title. Corporate seems to allow (and sometimes even encourage) this type of behavior. Culture is very much small-minded and rural given it's in a Chicago suburb - the majority of people here are interested in a punch-in and punch-out job where what they do in between doesn't matter as long as it's not too burdensome.

Pros

There are still great employees working at Discover despite looming layoffs due to Capital One acquisition.

Cons

Morale is at an all-time low, integration with Capital One has caused significant anxiety and confusion.
