      No support for growth, no direction, no paying down tech debt - Software Engineer DMI Employee Review

      Pros

      It paid the bills and there were some challenging projects that DMI inherited from the previous owner of the contract it took over. I got the chance to to work on a wide variety of technologies and types of work.

      Cons

      I knew I was underpaid because I never pushed very hard on salary stuff (I did get one 5K raise/title bump, but every other annual raise was 2% or less), and I don't feel there was much support for my growth as a software engineer. A lot of fighting fires, and not a lot of support for paying down technical debt, except when there was approval for considering a rewrite. DMI took over the contract and did a reorganization that nobody working there was happy with. Later on, there was what I believe was a stealth layoff (they had devs working on too many non-dev things and weren't filling positions when they left), followed by some actual layoffs after I left. It's possible these reductions were at the request of the customer.

      Pros

      They have been good to me. My manager was very good, I am contracted to a state organization to a good team. This is probably the best job I've ever had. I recommend them.

      Cons

      Honestly, I have no complaints.

      Pros

      Pay on the program I worked on was good. A few pockets of good teams at corporate (finance and hr)

      Cons

      The culture of the company changed drastically over the past 5 years to one that I can't support. Zero support from the C-Suite and no corporate reach back. Two months of no reply to consistent emails to the C-Suite for support. Years of escalations of issues on the program were met with silence as the money was flowing in. Once it stopped, they were shocked. Rewarding only yes men or yes women instead of those sacrificing for the contract. If you gossip to the C-Suite and don't question, you'll be rewarded. Even a high level senior leader made a considerable amount of money for years but literally lied about Financials and what work his team did. How does that happen?!
