Pros

Benefits are okay. Take advantage of tuition reimbursement there. Most of the intelligent people there do. Other standard benefits.

Cons

It was all roses to start, but I quickly learned plenty of obstacles had to be hurdled daily to get my job done. Had to seek out information, seek out the right people with said information, get approvals within and outside my department, even outside the state, for small things. Those in mid and upper management seem to be clueless and out of touch. As long as the company is making progress, damn the stock prices. My stock there was originally $80/share, but fell to $40 over five years. They often seek barely warm bodies with a few active brain cells for management positions and these people are ill equipped. Many of the managers could use communication skills and human communication 101 lessons.

Great culture, supportive leadership, and meaningful creative work with opportunities to learn and grow.

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.
