Pros

Good location in the Center City Philadelphia Nice offices

Cons

I would not stay too long or you become complacent while very busy with nonsense tasks directly or indirectly related to your role. Salaries below market value. Little opportunity to grow, dated technology with no budget to get anything done. CEO openly does not care about employees retention.

Pros

Business side is smart and is superb at their product

Cons

The IT organization struggles with structural challenges that impact efficiency. The offshore-heavy model in India means US-based employees regularly work early hours to stay aligned, which is unsustainable long-term. The workforce is heavily weighted toward a high-headcount service model rather than investing in strong engineering talent — you need fewer, better engineers, not more bodies. Central tech functions are attempting to build platforms, but without a clear shared understanding of what a platform actually means, these initiatives remain incomplete. The result is heavy manual workarounds propping up half-finished solutions. Strategic direction shifts frequently, and ongoing layoff announcements make it difficult to plan or build momentum.
