Pros
Flight benefits. (That seems to be the only thing going for DGS.)
Cons
DGS has a very unique setup. Though they are owned by Delta Airlines, the management for DGS is separate, meaning they have a lot of room to develop their own culture. Unfortunately, rather than using that as an opportunity to create something positive and carve out their own identity, the management has taken a different route. At DGS, the leadership is entrenched in a very tight group, with a couple of managers and some HR staff colluding with each other to hire friends from church and family members, while actively preventing much of the security staff from being given opportunities to advance in the company. Job postings are not distributed and access to the main office (where the postings are kept,) is restricted. If you do happen upon a job listing and apply for it, chances are your info is just tossed; you’ll never hear back. Ever. The overwhelming likelihood is you will not find a career here. Sure there is the off chance you’ll make it into Delta proper, but it’s tough to do, especially if you start out in security. Regardless of your education, if your advancement is dependent on making it past DGS management/HR, it isn’t going to happen.
