Thread regarding Capital One layoffs

Toxic culture. Some People working there are conditioned to believe this is a normal working environment and I've heard people say Its like this anywhere you work now. I refuse to believe that and will be grateful when my experience is history. I can look back and be grateful for the positive experiences and forget abt all the negative stressful ones.

I was laid off in November while I was STD leave, I was told that employees who were redeployed and applied for other Jobs in the company would be considered first. It happens that was simply a lie, I’ve applied for several positions all of which I was more than qualified for and never once did I even get considered. I later received calls and texts from others saying the same thing, a lot of people who were on STD were laid off and never considered for another position. It’s true if you’re not in the clique or over 50, you’re done. However if you are in a clique and are a manager you can literally commit fireable offenses against your own team members, lie and cheat, provide completely false information on mid year reviews and if you challenge that review like someone else said your wasting your time. Meanwhile the manger totally in the wrong quietly gets promoted and suffers absolutely zero consequences! It is a good company to work for if your in your 20-30’s, if your in your 40’s or 50’s no matter how well you do, “inclusion” is not meant for you!

@jltk+1rWDqsbR You’re so right about it going downhill after following their “process” for feedback. Not one person in leadership or HR actually cares to hear about anything. Capital One’s customers should be weary of trusting them. I myself had a target put on me after going to leadership with feedback on illegal practices and breaking regulatory compliance laws. How they’ve not been investigated yet is beyond me

Capital One is a joke. Worked there for six years. In the beginning, it was a great company. When I got my first bad performance review about 1.5 years ago, my manager included incorrect info. I challenged the review following the C1 process. Things went downhill from there. Terrible management, terrible performance review process. If you’re all about su-king up to management, it’s the right place for you.

When I worked there between 2018-2019, I couldn't understand why they were on the list for greatest places to work. The toxicity is real. I mentioned it in those surveys they force you to take. Didn't hold back. I was shown the door later but didn't give a cr-p. They su-k big time.

A few years ago I remember reading an article about C1 being a great place to work and they mentioned a perk, I forget what it even was all I know it was something they didn’t even offer to remote workers…. Only on site.

The awards are rigged. As someone stated earlier, HR handles filling out most of them with “glowing” data.

C1 is excited about this Fortune Best Places to Work ranking. However, the Fortune Top Companies to work for list is BS. These surveys go to a company's HR department, and then HR fills out the survey with their tailored responses. The "best" foot forward is showed for the company toward Fortune. Glassdoor isn't perfect, but the feedback from staff is something you can't brush away like with this award, even with occasional bloviated reviews.

I agree. I went from a very strong to a PIP in one year. It was because I wasn’t in their clique and still thought our honest and constructive feedback mattered. Boy, was I wrong. Waiting for my box to return my equipment😂

As someone who was burned by this godforsaken company, I just laugh. Capital One has truly ruined its reputation.

Capital One rabbis # 15 on the 2024 Fortune 100 best Companies. I just don’t know how. This Company should be on the of 100 worst companies

Capone should have never been on the list of best places to work, but on the list for top #10 worse places to work.
