Pros

Its a job with a paycheck.

Cons

Wow, and I mean wow! They do a fantastic job on promoting the people they like, who are embedded in their cliques and higher-up social circles. If you are not a friendly person in your personal life, do not apply for a position here! You can be great at your job but if you aren't friends with the right people, good luck! They don't do verbal or written warnings. They will let you fail and when they are ready to let you go, they will present you with a performance improvement plan and try to force you out. I will comment on the ratings. Career opportunities depends on if you are friends with the right people. Compensation and benefits are poor because they ask for the best performance but pay average based on the market. Culture and values might as well spell out "Scientology". Diversity and inclusion means 99% white people and the 1% is a rehired black guy. Senior management only wants to hear or portray the good things but never addresses the true issues. Probably because they are part of the issue. Work/life balance is poor too. They "encourage" you to read every update, read every Slack channel, and be a part of every event. But they aren't willing to let you do it during work time. They also force you to do homework projects and read books for "improving yourself" and if you want to apply for a different position. One final thing. The upper management positions suggested people to work on holidays but they don't work the holidays themselves.

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.
