Pros

Nice people, great atmosphere, on-site nurse, gym on site, cafeteria. Hard working people working there because they love the company but arent being compensated properly.

Cons

No opportunity for advancement, same people doing same job for 20+ years, management will play favorites and ignore warning signs then have to fire someone they just gave a major award to. When positions do become open, applying is a waste of time because they have already decided who to hire. HR department is known for misleading prospective new hires.

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.
