Pros

good benefit, wlb if you don't care promotion or be put into the low rank

Cons

This review maybe only apply to a specific sub LOB, but if you are in this sub LOB, you know what I am talking about They hire you as machine learning engineer , you then found there is nothing in your daily work has anything to do with machine learning, and half of your time is working on governace, OPL, your skillsets or domain knowledge on machine learning will diminish due to lack of use The managers who have machine learning tiles know nothing about machine learning. they got this title when the organization shift it's focus on machine learning, and need the headcount to show the stackholder that C1 is AI driven . they never understood nor appreciation your insight or skillsets, on the contrary, some managers exhibit hostility due to feeling threatened by they hired machine learning engineers' better insight on the project as a whole Stay away if you are machine learning engineer

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.
