Pay is good, people are nice, work is unstimulating, things take forever and there are no opportunities to move up. - Anonymous employee Capital Group Employee Review

Pros

Between the salary, bonuses and retirement contibution (15%), most people end up making more here than they would be able to anywhere else, even though they are working below their potential. The "golden handcuffs" keep a lot of people at CG. People are very respectful. You don't find the yelling or abuse you would get in entertainment or other high pressure environments. In most departments, there is good work/life balance. The work environment is nice.

Cons

There really is no career path and no training or development opportunities. In the last year or so, it has gotten even worse because they've tried to put the burden more on the associate, like it's our fault for not developing ourselves. There are not a lot of opportunities for moving within the company and we don't have internal training except for IT so makes it kind of difficult. CG has started to move faster in some areas, but still is very slow in some things which can be very frustrating.

Pros

The bonuses and CSRP of 15% as well as many benefits are unmatched. I enjoy many of my colleagues and have made life long friends.

Cons

It was a great place to work and many will continue to feel that way until they are affected like those of us in the Norfolk Virginia office. There is no loyalty from the company and people are replaced either by a “vision“ of technology that doesn’t yet even exist within the organization or by cheap labor “offshore“. I thought I would retire from here and now I find myself out of a job after over 20 years before the end of 2027.
