Pros

Some people are decent here.

Cons

Trust me. Do not come here. I am doing well yet this place has still ruined me. 10-20% of the workforce gets culled every 6 months. You don’t work on tech, you work on making yourself look good during calibrations. You can’t get anything done because the internal tooling and procedures are criminally bad.

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.
