| For those of you who work (or worked) for Capital One: Would you have taken the job if HR had told you about their archaic performance management system? |
| DH works there. He got a 50k bonus this year, so I don’t really care if it’s archaic or not. |
| DH works there. It's a lot of time/work, but it seems to work well for them. DH is also compensated well (salary/benefits/bonus). |
| What is so archaic about it? |
|
Who gives a crap?
Does it also bother you that the light switches aren’t WiFi enabled too? |
| Do you mean the fact that it’s competitive? It can suck, but COF is one of the few places where the answer as to why you didn’t get promoted is “so and so achieved more results” vs “we only have 1 position and it has to go to Tom because Toms been waiting for 6 years, but the next guy to retire, you are up.” |
It’s a forced balancing/quota system. 10-15% “have to” fail. |
| so you're one of the failees? |
What does he do? |
I’ll be vague and say he’s on the bank side at director level. |
Okay, the amount is quite nice for a director. I'm at a Sr. analyst level with a competitor and I barely got $5k. |
Yeah, it was a pretty good year for him and he got a “Very Strong”. |
No but we’ve had 75% turnover this year as a result... |
In what dept? Because that is not at all the case in DH’s. But he has a great boss, even through the never-ending re-orgs. |
Not in tech or a profit making line of business. One bad set of bosses were replaced with another bad set.... |
