Vantaggi

Good pay for Engineer I and II Good benefits with cheap health care Free food (sometimes) ALOT of AWS experience gained

Svantaggi

-Having a noisy open workspace, working less hours and having stickers on laptops doesn't make you a tech company. The job was advertised as a software engineer but ended up doing boring DevOps work, and when I needed to code I had to deal with undocumented spaghetti code(I was surprised to see this quality of code in a company like CapOne). There is no enforcement from tech leads to write clean code or provide documentation. I was surprised because the coding challenge in the interview process was written very professionally and included end to end testing. -You'll need to go through many procedures in order to make any change in production code. -You'll spend most of your time on endless time meetings. -The tasks you need to work on are not clear and you will waste your life looking for answers on what needs to be done. -Co-workers are not helpful and lazy - will take time to respond to you so you stop asking questions and won't respond at all after 3:30pm (because this is when some people stop working here). -Tech lead is incompetent and careless. If asked, wouldn't even know how to run the app which is the core functionality that the team manages. Man I miss coding.

Vantaggi

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

Svantaggi

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.
