Pros

Depends on team but most teams are pretty nice and have a good/healthy culture and atmosphere. Pay is generally pretty competitive.

Cons

Either get into a TDP or other development program or join already as a manager/tech lead level employee, they get treated pretty fairly. That level in between you will get short changed compared to all the other associates in the development program. They will get paid more than you, get a lot more money put towards them as far work events and opportunities, and they will probably already have a head start compared to you in many aspects of the business. Promotions are rare and you need to go above and beyond to get one No stock options or associate-specific services in the company

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.
