Pros

work-life balance is decent. campus is ok

Cons

not a merit based culture. promotions are based on a number of advocates. passive - aggressive style making it very difficult to make progress and collaborate openly many unmotivated "dinosaurs" that just want to coast along. no energy, no drive satisfaction survey is conducted annually, but results are not really acted upon

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.
