Pros

They have a ping pong table. It's also not a hard job at all. The snacks are nice. Trying to hit the 20 word count

Cons

Under paid. Physical harassment. No HR. No real engineering or tech culture. Your not actually guaranteed any office space. Promotions aren't based on performance. I've seen them promise people raises to keep them from taking another job, and upon turning down the job they take the raise back. The cons go on and on forever. Saw managers refer to their employees as replaceable and expendable. Some of my coworkers would cry at night because they were so demoralized from being treated poorly

Pros

Environment was good, food was decent, free food at my location (dont know if it was allowed but it was good)

Cons

The rittenhouse location is managed by a tyrant, he is an incredibly toxic man and upper management make it the most unbearable place to work. Andy will ask you to come in on days you're not scheduled, and then hold it over your head if you don't. Talks about employees behind their backs constantly. No respect enforced employees talked about each other all the time and there was even name calling in meetings, management did nothing. Worst place I've ever worked in my life frankly and affected my mental health in the worst way. Glad to be out out of there. The place itself has potential but the management at the Rittenhouse branch and above them is absolutely terrible in every regard.
