Pros

Nice people Good benefits Free coffee

Cons

Company’s culture has fallen off cliff over the last 2 years because they want to copy & become like other tech companies(Amazon, Google etc.) This has destroyed the team spirit & it’s now every person for themselves because of the toxic culture they have created to become a tech company. Red tape, frequently broken developer platforms & leadership detached from reality make daily work difficult. Pay is average. It’s not sad to see a company known for it’s employee friendly culture now going rapidly in the opposite direction.

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.
