Pros

Benefits are good and some perks such as working remotely (if you work for the right manager) help maintain work life balance. You'll work with many smart people who you'll learn from; most everyone is amicable and interested in getting things accomplished.

Cons

Tremendous lack of communication from management regarding direction of company. Very political - if you aren't good at promoting yourself and getting the right notice during meetings you will go nowhere. Doing your job well is not enough to get promoted nor is it rewarded. Understand in advance that your job is not secure. If you are promoted during the year, expect to get a poor review when you are first evaluated at that new level.

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.
