Vantaggi
Free sodas in an easily-accessible Center City office were very nice. Co-workers were overall very friendly and pleasant people.
Svantaggi
There were not a ton of great lunch options nearby. Additionally, most employees ate at their desks, as opposed to lunch being a time for any sort of social interaction.
More seriously, the office as a whole felt dilapidated and needed a thorough cleaning as well as carpets and furniture replaced. The company culture was very gloomy as a lot of employees seemed disappointed due to the recent acquisition of Villa by DTLR.
A large number of Villa employees have been laid off in the past year. It seems that DTLR is choosing to strictly have Villa operate the e-commerce side of the business which leaves the large Philadelphia Villa office mostly empty, since DTLR remains headquartered in Hanover, MD.
