Pros

Company is good to technology and software engineering employees and good for benefits. Company values are good, just not in TA.

Cons

Tech TA isn't treated well at all. Many broken systems and bad management. Everything revolves around an old school brown nose, popularity contest type of culture. A lot of create your own value by making up pointless meetings and "omg that's amazing" type of responses to managements every word. Metrics are "rank and yank" bell-curve style not based on actual numbers. Scheduling is bad, and you will become a sourcer not a true inhouse recruiter here.

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.
