Pros

Some of the best and smartest people I've worked with in terms of sheer analytic skills and ability. The West Creek complex has lots to make the working area fresh and enjoyable - albeit a bit short of space.

Cons

Make no mistake - the place is politics to the nth degree, and not in a favorable way. If you're looking for candor and transparency in leadership this in not the place to look. I'm not saying that all are vile, but I would say that there is an 'old guard' in mid-upper management that has lost its way. And the self-interest of these folks severely limits the ability of the company to be the best. People are pawns, and contractors... well they're something less, but at least provide cover.

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.
