Pros

Aggresive business strategy that is always challenging; but, in a competitive and rewarding manner. Great product line, great associate team, great enviroment that fosters competition and growth both personally and professionally. I have been with DSG for about 4 years, and have seen this company grow dramatically, and through the thick and thin it is good to see that the upper echelons of management have their heads in the correct place and we are investing time and money in the right places.

Cons

Much like any retailer; can be too reactive at times. And, with the aggresive nature of the company, that reaction can be very dramatic. The efforts are put in the right place, but are tough to obtain sometimes. But, that is why I am a manager. The company is growing; and in a tough economy; growth is good... yes, the growth can be painful at times, and can hurt the immediate team members, but in the long run it will be good for the company and all team members who can hang on.

Pros

- Unlimited PTO with 401k match is awesome

Cons

- Performance expectations were often unclear or inconsistently communicated, Feedback was reactive instead of timely and actionable. - Leadership quality varied dramatically by manager, with limited coaching or mentorship. - Constant shifting priorities without adjusting expectations or workload. - Psychological safety was lacking, Honest communication feel risky. - Leadership messaging around culture didn't match day-to-day reality. - Process was often valued more than impact or results. - Compensation well below market, w/little flexibility during negotiations. - I felt excluded from key conversations and opportunities that were important to my success.
