Pros

- work on exciting projects using new technology - most peers were incredibly helpful and supportive

Cons

- didn’t feel genuinely supported by management, seems like they were constantly positioning themselves for advancement at the expensive of employees below them - stack rankings judge your “competency” against teammates and not personal growth. If you are new on a team and working with unfamiliar technology, you’ll be ranked the lowest

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.
