Pros
- Free DIG meals - Work among highly motivated and generally kind individuals - High level of autonomy to complete initiatives
Kontras
- Lack of transparency and clear communication from senior leadership. As per the employee handbook "Dig Inn may also change the compensation, duties, assignments, responsibilities, or geographical location of your job at any time, with or without cause." Expect senior leadership to use this quote as leverage to pressure you into working conditions you did not negotiate. - Lack of diversity in the corporate organization, especially at a senior level - The organization doesn't practice their values, despite emphasizing them in the hiring process. Note that as of this review, the company's mission page hasn't been updated with relevant impact statistics since 2017... - Social issues are rarely discussed or acted on in a meaningful way. The company does not externally activate for social movements like Pride or Juneteenth, and the organization refuses to take strong internal stand in their communications of support because they "want to ensure that the message does not become a commenting feed where our teams publicly disagree with one another." - Culture of "do what the CEO says", regardless of team expertise or business case preparation - Organization doesn't recognize burnout, instead framing burnout as an individual failure to prioritize workflow - Organization tends not to backfill corporate roles of those who have recently departed the company, instead redistributing responsibilities among existing employees - "Zero base budget" mentality; you are expected to continually do more with less resources - No retirement plan - No training budgets, L&D budgets; otherwise minimal opportunity to grow
