Pros

* Job is easy for the most part as technical depth is non-existent * Solid benefits - 7% (3% unconditional, 4:6% 401K, 2 yr cliff) match - 15 days of backup child care via Bright Horizons - on average 20 days of vacation with unlimited sick time

Cons

* YMMV as this all depends on your team and direct leadership. If it's bad, it's B.A.D. If it's okay, it's okay. * PIP culture is real - believe what you read elsewhere on the internet. * Internal tools are absolutely awful and major obstacles most of the time

Great culture, supportive leadership, and meaningful creative work with opportunities to learn and grow.

There can be a learning curve due to the size of the organization and the number of internal tools and processes.

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.
