It's another thing to be laid off after you've spent weeks training your cheaper replacement in another country not knowing you were training your replacement. That adds another layer to the whole thing that is completely despicable. I truly feel for... — read more 

I am seeing this morning that Meta had given bad reviews to thousands recently. This is just business. If you need to get rid of people, you cull the lower performers. Just because you may have been one of the folks who got a bad review and lost... — read more 

Huge layoff in Navigator Platform as they continue to replace us with offshore. Capital One contines to exploit cheap labor while benefiting from Americam Consumers and being bailed out with Americam Tax dollars.

It has been 25 days since we got laid off, how are you holding up, I am still struggling and not able to come to terms with it. This is a challenging situation and I trust and believe that everyone will come out as a winner on the other side of... — read more

The Director and obove hired from outside are completely useless and ignorant about the business and the working of C1, they think C1 is at par with big tech whereas it is nowhere close, they are just imposing the structure and way of working of... — read more 

The reality of the agile layoffs is sinkng in and teams are scambing to fill the void of the ADLs. They want team members to improvise and close the gap of what the ADLs did. It's their company they should figure that out.

Found this article, it is such a good read, this is what happened in C1. I hope management will learn some lessons. How Layoffs Hurt Companies https://knowledge.wharton.upenn.edu/article/how-layoffs-cost-companies/

When I look at the posts here, CI appears to be really bad company to work for, stack rankings, culture of favoritism, bad HR policies, terrible top management, which are all true because I have experienced it first hand. My only regret is why the... — read more 

Told by management they don't do stack rankings contrary to blogs here and on reddit and Glassdoor that they do by employees. Who's lying?

I searched in LinkedIn “Capital one agile” and found hundreds of profiles with heart wrenching posts, it was very sad to see thousand of employees living in Virginia have been laid off. I have also noticed of late C1 is mostly hiring from west... — read more 

A lot of promotions are happening at the top level, director and above. Mostly driven by suck-up-ability. The b.s. index is high in this company.

Has anybody in the redeployment applied for internal jobs and were you successful in getting an interview, please post your experience.

Maybe they thought that fear of getting laid off would make people work even harder, but I notice that the exact opposite is happening. Is there anyone who continued to work hard in such a chaotic and uncertain atmosphere that they created? — read more 

Been here for 5 years in Data Analysis and things don't look too good. Any bets on which Job Family is going to get nuked next?

I don't like what's happening here at all. Cutting institutional knowledge and keeping the greatest mediocrity is completely irrational. I hope that the leadership is not too confident that the best people will be easy to replace or that their jobs... — read more 

Their forced ranking system has been the subject of class action lawsuit since at least 2003. C One stated they would stop doing forced ranking in 2003 but never did and it's 2023. See article... — read more 

CAP1 has been hiring incompetent people in their top positions, they prefer people who look good and talk well and not talent. Card tech will be headed by a joker from Macy, if you look further in his resume he was also in Staples so after bringing... — read more 

I feel a humane way of downsizing would have been, to eliminate the Agile job family as that is what they wanted but giving an option to employees impacted to move either to Product Owner, Technical Project Manager(TPM), or just Project Manager... — read more 

I don't have much optimism that there won't be another round, but that's just my opinion.

They fail to understand that the problem is not agile but bad requirements, the Product Owners are new, do not understand the business have no long term view and would not write user stories. All the Product work is being done by engineers. Also... — read more

I think that C1 does not really embrace the internal movement of the workforce. In fact, it seems that most people think that redeployment is just a farce and nothing more?

From my experience the ADLs didn't own the business or technology so didn't add much value. They also used to track metrics that didn't translate to any business meaning.

This was just the opening salvo. Look around you. Both industries we fit in are in crisis. This will not end anytime soon and by the time it does, many more of us will be jobless. My advice is to start looking for a new job right now, even if you're... — read more 

Replacing agile project and program mgrs by product and engineering teams... many problems could arise from this, right?

Nothing new at C1. I survived this round. More coming? Always in a few months and during next performance round.

I was a member of the C1 family for over 18 years. The last 2 years were a nightmare. Our department grew from 85 to over 500. They brought in these "JOKE" leaders who instead of focusing on solving fun challenges and problems had us attend DEI... — read more

From what I can understand - and I've asked around quite a bit - no engineers were part of the 1,100 laid of employees. Does this mean we're safe? I'm worried that since none were impacted in this round it's not that we're safe but that our turn is... — read more 

I was quite surprised by these layoffs.

Atleast 1,100 full time associate have been laid of by CapitalOne. With no clear reason as to the cause of the layoffs.

Today Capital One eliminated every agile role within technology, and thousands of people have been impacted.

Looks like 10-15% of the company just got axes, all ADL and agile adjacent roles are gone as of February 1st.

I'd like to add it to a layoffs trackers list

I am sorry to hear that ADL people got laid off (if it's true) but I would most like to be laid off too. I never thought that one day I would want to be cut, but now I do because it has become unbearably stressful and hard to work here. I'm sure... — read more 

I heard that all Agile Delivery Leads are laid off, could be around 1100 total. Can anyone else confirm?
