Pros

Good work environment - bright colleagues. Most of the associates are hired from good schools and come in with great energy and excitement. The work itself is moderately interesting.

Cons

Poor leadership - focused on self preservation in shrinking environment. Work is becoming much more routine with focus on comliance and approvals so shades of bureacuracy creeping in. Slowly clawing away on benefits and salary packages over time. A few fast trackers grow fast but for the rest it can be a slow growth environment

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.
