Vanguard, Comcast, the various medium to large pharmas in the area, various FS if you live closer to or in Delaware. I don’t particularly like Comcast but a bunch of folks have exited particularly there from consulting and Big 4 roles.

SAP North American HQ is right outside the city and is probably the biggest tech company in the area. Like D1 said, most FS companies (Capital One, JPMC, Morgan Stanley) are down in Wilmington, Delaware which is probably a 30 minute drive from Philly. I’ll second Comcast as an option but haven’t heard the best things about their culture.

Does anyone working in these companies live in the Philly suburbs? Like Newton square , bucks county.

I have been living in Radnor for 9 years

Sure. Lots of folks live in and around Newtown Square for SAP, Malvern for Vanguard, North Wilmington for AstraZeneca, West Chester for QVC, etc. I grew up in Paoli, about a 10 minute drive north of SAP HQ.

Lots of folks commute downtown, and most of the large HQs are readily walkable to the three main commuter rail stations, and Comcast HQ has direct underground access to Suburban Station from the lobby of the building.

Note that there is a Newtown Square west of the city in Delaware County, and a Newtown northeast of the city in Bucks County.

I started QA at the company I am currently at 3 years ago. Long story short, within 4 months at the company, I was able to make a career change and step into a PM position. Without having the formal education or PM experience, only my 5 years in QA experience. When I started I made $65k and have jumped to $78k. I have seen other companies post $100k+. Annual review is tomorrow. Should I fight for more or look for more somewhere else if I lose that fight?
