Pros

Good pay, benefits, time off, etc. Pockets of great leadership. Campuses are excellent - great work spaces and amenities. Coworkers are super bright, most committed to the success of projects, their teams, and their peers.

Cons

Confused on their identity. Want to be a "tech" company, but are a large financial institution. This conflicts with federal regulations/controls/and risk reduction practices needed to support a financial institution. Also has a tendency to do a full pendulum swing verses really thinking through broadscale shifts in direction. In this new agile world, senior leadership should pilot, implement, learn in smaller pockets vs. taking an all or nothing approach to everything they do. It's ok though because with the tendency to overcorrect, wait a year or so and it will balance back to what would have made sense in the first place...

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.
