Capital One Sr. Director Software Engineering reviews

Rank and yank creates a culture of unhealthy competition. It reduces productivity and generates shiny turd results. Improper motivations. Workers are in survival mode, very fearful. Blowhards babblers everywhere showing off. Unreal level of politics.

Year-end performance reviews are brutal and full of games even though HR does their best to remove biases. This drives a never say "no" to new asks culture, so you can end up working very long days and be spread super thin as well as other negative effects. There is still a need for more diversity in senior leadership.
