Amazing Place to Work

Pros

Work life balance is the best I've had in my years of employment. Benefits are good and getting better. My "work family" is an amazing bunch of people. Working at Dodd, I enjoy getting up in the mornings!

Cons

I personally do not have a downside to working here, and I'm being honest! I have worked at places that make you not want to get out of bed in the mornings. Dodd is NOT one of those places.

Pros

I have worked at Dodd Creative for over 5 years. The biggest pro is we all have the same drive and passion for the work we do and the clients we service. I have never worked with a more talented, professional group that wouldn't stop doing what they are doing at any given minute to help someone else get a problem solved or a project over the finish line. We all come to work to work hard but at the end of the day, we can leave work where it is and get home to our personal lives and recharge.

Cons

With growth comes growing pains. Solutions aren't always the most obvious but through the last few years we have all learned what it takes to make ourselves and our company successful without losing touch with every single person that works with us.

Pros

- A mission of doing outstanding work and creating a great place for our team to work - Work-life balance is a priority and a reality - Job security: We have experienced steady growth and are busier than we've ever been - we weathered the worst of the pandemic with very few losses and came out the other side stronger than ever - Great culture, the team knows how to have fun and do amazing work - While I think it is an area we can to continue to grow in, I have seen a track record of inclusion and diversity in hiring - Everyone is a team player who builds each other up and will do whatever it takes to support one another - Every team member practices humility - Over recent years the hiring process has become more intentional and rigorous, prioritizing not only skillset, but also a good culture fit so the team enjoys working with one another (and minimizes drama) - Cool workspace and office environment, including tech lounge for video games and breaks - Generous annual bonus, larger than anywhere else I ever worked previously - 100% of your healthcare premium is paid by the company because ownership has always believed every team member should not have to worry about their personal healthcare, meaning ZERO $ comes out of your paycheck - Hard work and taking ownership is recognized and rewarded - Opportunities for growth and professional development - We put out excellent work that is the best in our niche and that team members are proud to put their name on - The majority of our clients are great people who let us do fantastic creative work on their projects - Excellent reputation with our clients and vendor partners - The company continuously invests in improving from top to bottom - Tommy Dodd is the most generous person I have ever met, and is one of the hardest working people I know. He has overcome challenging circumstances to create a thriving business and share its rewards with his team and our vendor partners. He truly strives to live by his faith, admits his faults, and and is continuously working to become more self-aware and a better leader and I admire him for it

Cons

- The company and its people are not perfect. We have gone through some difficult times and growing pains. Being a small company which has doubled in size in a short period has offered a lot of challenges, many of which at the time we did not yet have the tools in place to respond to better. These were intensified by the pandemic and personal struggles. There absolutely has been reactive words, hasty actions, tears, and hurt feelings - we do not deny that. What some of the reviews here don't tell is that ownership recognizes they have made mistakes and has apologized for where they have fallen short. Over the years I have been here I have seen them make substantial investments in business coaching for ownership as well as leadership, and it has produced notable change. The company is aware of the feedback and is listening: leadership is being developed to be able to take over more of the day-to-day management of the company and personnel matters, as we also look ahead to ensure the company is sustainable through the future. - At the time of writing this review, the company doesn't currently offer a 401K or retirement plan. It is a priority for the company to implement one in the coming year.
