Pros

Great people to work with and work is extremely rewarding. If you're lucky, you won't have any competition for promotions on your team and get fast tracked for being the only one doing work.

Cons

Stacked Rankings pits everyone against each other. Even if you hit all of the benchmarks for promotion, you may not get it because so does everyone else on your team. Not to mention constant reorganizations often means your great relationship with leadership means nothing if they're reassigned every 6 months and you're left having to convince a new manager you've done great work the past year.

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.
