Pros

Given five promotions in six years for work above and beyond. Found anyone wanting promotion had to press the flesh with the right people and work the politics. Hard work and awards alone weren't enough. Leadership was sometimes lacking. I went four months on one team and we did not have a manager in that time. Team was eventually absorbed into other groups. Corporate perks that can be used in the community are great, if you can afford them.

Cons

Not family friendly, despite what you hear. I was written up and nearly fired for missing one day to bury a family member. Missed one day of work and immediately let my manager know and returned with an obituary. Nearly fired again when child hospitalized for serious illness. Shared news immediately with my then boss and he threatened to fire me, as my child was struggling for life in the PICU. Company values performance more than anything else and nobody in leadership wants to hear about problems or issues. Many colleagues came to me almost daily for answers that should've come from managers.

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.
