Pros

I got to work on a lot of stimulating projects and feel prepared to take on challenging work later in my career.

Cons

Management is brutal during performance reviews, environment is very political. If you aren’t a favorite, you will get a PIP and shown the door no matter how smart or skilled you are. Lots of pressure to work late.

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.
