Pros

Quality of intellectual talent - still among the best and brightest although erosion of average intellect has continued from its peak in 2004-2005.

Cons

Its just like any other bank now - no growth anywhere - dog-eat-dog politics. Political maneouvering trumps meritocracy. Some of the most unprofessional managerial behaviors have started to creep into the culture. Executives make noises from time to time but largely adopt a 'Look away and dont tell' position on such happenings. Some quality does exist at the MVP+ levels but thereafter, its all downhill VP and below.

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.
