Pros

Good work life balance. Good number of holidays which are given at start of the year, Discover used to have no layoffs hence people used to stay here for 10+ years (before Capital One merger). Remote work anywhere in USA.

Cons

Merger with Capital One. Now job is unstable. No remote work in Capital One.

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.
