Pros

Benefits and pay and some cool projects to work on

Cons

Toxic environment that will cause you to burn out quickly. There is little to no team camaraderie here. The work from downtown/home policy is a fraud, you will be making the commute to Riverwoods 4 times a week, and you are frowned upon if you do not work extra hour on evenings/weekends. The stress levels of working here are totally unnecessary, and to top it off the management teams are unapproachable. Do yourself a favor and find something better.

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.
