Pros

Company pays well and the range is broad for the role. Perks are good and comparable with market.

Cons

Zero work life balance Leadership with C level is awesome, but middle level management is really where the trouble is. Directors and VPs strive for show casing with innovation but none cares about building matured products. My push for building quality reusable frameworks was never respected. Agile framework are being used inappropriately for projects that has fixed requirements. The employees are relatively young and spoiled middle management is costing young and talented generation coached bad practices for short wins hence loosing long term visions.

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.
