Pros

Good benefits. Opportunities for in-house training and on the job experience. Brand recognition helps on the resume. Very smart and talented coworkers. Well thought out programs, although not always for the associates' best interests.

Cons

The frequent reorganizations make it difficult to develop strong working relationship. The performance evaluation system emphasizes weaknesses and stokes internal competition. In addition the different job families are not treated or valued equally. The base salaries are lower and large portion of the compensation is deferred (annual bonuses etc) so if you leave you lose much of what you earned over the preivous year. Some claim that the company takes advantage of the visa status of many of the associates, rewarding them less since it is difficult for them to seek employment elsewhere.

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.
