Pros

Interactions with coworkers were nice.

Cons

Terrible choice of promotions. Individuals promoted to manager with a serious lack of ability. Poisonous work atmosphere. Individuals not following no tobacco use while at work/in-doors. Unhygienic actions by "spitting" nicotine into other's trash while talking with them. Immensely inappropriate.

DCS Corp Response

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback and bringing this issue to our attention. As a current employee-owner you know one of the key pillars of DCS core values is the welfare of our employees. DCS strives to provide a work environment that is challenging where employees can fully exploit their individual talents and look forward to work and have fun performing it. If you wish to find more challenging work I suggest you talk to your manager to see if other opportunities are available and also develop your career plan if you haven’t. We are sorry about the slow response time communicating with your supervisor, I suggest you reach out your HR advisor or the level 2 manager to get quicker responses to your concerns.

Pros

Solid work-life balance. I rarely worked late and all of my projects had distant deadlines. The projects I worked on were pretty relaxed and informal, i.e. a client would ask for support on some project and I'd provide it, no code reviews, agile boards, etc.

Cons

The pay increase schedule is a fairly generous annual adjustment (5-6%) but there's no pay bump for title changes so that's all you get. Additionally, the culture of my team at least didn't really promote career growth or skill learning. My manager gave me a lot of freedom to work as independently, but the tradeoff of that is that I didn't gain experience with code reviews, stand-ups, Agile, etc. Not as important if you already have a lot of experience under your belt but something to consider for a junior engineer.
