Pluspunten

-Decent Tech Stack. Everything is AWS based -Work with very smart people -Benefits are some of the best I've seen outside of Government

Minpunten

- Toxic work culture created by stack based ranking performance reviews. Managers keep lists of other teams/individuals screw ups during the year and use it during performance reviews. You could have a team of 8 rock star engineers but because of stack ranking, one has to be fired every year. -Nothing gets done unless something is on fire or escalation. -Performance review criteria constantly changing and benchmarks for roles are hidden. -Secret layoffs. Co Workers suddenly disappear and management doesn't talk about it. - The internal hiring process is broken. The workday job reqs don't actually reflect anything the positions entail. The only way to find a new job internally is networking during corporate happy hours.

Pluspunten

Environment was good, food was decent, free food at my location (dont know if it was allowed but it was good)

Minpunten

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.
