Pros

Cool product, good benefits, fun people.

Cons

Don't try for a promotion if you're a woman. You will be passed over multiple times for men who have less experience and qualifications than you. Also, don’t ever expect a raise. Ever.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. If you have experienced anything that suggests there is gender discrimination taking place in our selection process, I plead with you to talk to Human Resources. You can connect with anyone you feel most comfortable with, including our Chief People Officer. If you are not comfortable with that for any reason, please talk to any member of leadership, up to and including the CEO. We need to know about these things in order to address them. We would also like to take this opportunity to share transparently some facts about the concerns you referenced: 34% of our managers/supervisors and above are females 27% of our directors and above are females 33% of our executive team are females (For context, about 40% of our total workforce are female and 60% are male) In terms of pay increases, so far in 2023, 85% of our eligible employees earned base pay increases. Some of these are even multiple increases to the same person because they received a merit increase and later a job change with pay increase. The average increase across these is 7%. If by chance, you are an Account Executive in Outside Sales, we have a base salary plus an uncapped commission plan. Therefore, those roles are not eligible to receive annual increases to base salary. However, we review our compensation strategy regularly and have made adjustments to the base salary based on geography for example. We offer all employees professional development to ensure high performance in current roles as well as develop new skills. Thank you for being part of Team Delta Defense. Please review your Individual Development Plan with your manager. A template and other resources are available to help you.

Pros

Not sure why there are so many bad reviews. I work at the headquarters and it’s wonderful! I have worked at a few companies and there is a night and day difference - Work life balance is great - Wonderful coworkers - Great work/team building outings - Leadership invests in professional development - Lots of opportunities to be in West Bend, all paid for by Delta - Delta is very picky with who is hired to ensure everyone fits the culture - Everyone is super kind and easy to get along with. Also, everyone is very skilled - C suite is very open and honest. Company wide meetings every week that allow everyone to be informed on what is happening. - Benefits are amazing: yearly stipend, generous pto (no problems using it), hybrid or wfh options, good health insurance, USCCA membership, good pay - The dress code is very casual - Paid time off to volunteer! Plus donation matching - The owners are VERY generous

Cons

- The hours can get long some days - Very open floor plan at HQ. This can be a pro or con depending on preferences - The CEO isn’t super involved in day to day operations - Not a con to me, but you must be supportive of the second amendment and feel comfortable around firearms. - If you are someone who likes to do the bare minimum, this probably isn’t the place for you - You will need to pass the culture test and write a values essay. Again, there is a high standard for hiring.

Pros

Good culture at corporate level

Cons

No support or culture at the local level- pretty much on your own. No Back up. Be prepared to work 7 days a week at all hours of the day or night.

Thank you for sharing your experience and for your time with us. We are always evolving in how we support our Sales team, including dedicated leaders in each geographic region and stronger local coverage, so team members are supported. We also want to clarify that we pay based on national pay markets, and that Sales roles include uncapped performance-based commission. Thank you for your time with us. We hope you have found happiness and success since your departure.
