Pros

Benefits are good as compared with similar ones. 401K contribution, vocation package and other benefits overall. Compensation is acceptable, but it's not in the top in region area. A lot trainings with lunch free, Xmas party, team party. Nice campus in West Creek and Buildings with nice office. Company have good profits so far.

Cons

Waste your time to work if you want career opportunities. Company is still using 'tech' as old as 10 years ago and try to keep it forever. A Bank company's goal to be 'Technology' ones, but it's not realistic. Senior managers are anxious of their 'performance' to get higher annual bonus, They do not care what is the new and DO CARE WHAT PEOPLE LIE AT STANDING UP MEETING. A lot meetings create 'good' communications with trashes. For example, 10-10, How to listen your boss's lies and flatter them. Agile, How to lie your daily work. Agile grooming, How to generate a lot trash tasks and nobody really cares later. PS: Over 100 people fly from different regions to discuss one or two week tasks for less than 10 people. Richmond JAVA Community, Another trash meeting to benefit special purpose (individually).

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.
