Pros

Lax vacation policy, remote work

Cons

Performance management is a joke. If you’re over 30 and competent you’ll be passed over for promotion. C1 promotes younger people that need to leverage others to get their work done. Unbelievable display of the Peter Principle in C1’s hierarchy. You’ll be reporting to someone younger than you that is most likely a micro-manager. The person I report to has seen 3 promotions in 5 years, yet not a single one of their 12 direct reports has been promoted.

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.
