Pros

- Most teams take work-life balance seriously and working from home is a legitimate option - Good benefits like an at-work gym, decent cafeteria options, and good vacation allowance - A Diverse culture -- people from all walks of life

Cons

- Some teams/departments are competitive, judgmental, and catty but the company culture is one of acceptance, collaboration, and lifting each other up. I guess it's pretty normal workplace politics. - Large company means lots of red tape to get anything significant (or almost significant) accomplished. - Every few years they do a large round of layoffs. Some people on my team who were laid off had been there for more than 10 years.

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.
