Pros

DAT is always changing looking for "what's next" which allows it be a fun, exciting place to work. We're continuing to grow our name in the transportation industry and its great to see when our data is used to explain economic changes. The company listens to the employees and tries to accomodate whenever possible (ex: socials, food trucks -suggestions from employees).

Cons

Because of the growing services we provide, it at times becomes difficult to keep track of everything happening.

Pros

Flexible - DAT engineers are privileged up to 2 days work from home as there are some who come from as far as Vancouver, Battle Ground, and Salem. Challenging - DAT has a range of SAAS offerings in the Transportation industry and the technical challenges that developers face are interesting. There are no boring days! Growth Opportunities - DAT is evolving and has teams that focus on microservices, front end web development, and native android and ios applications. Good Work life balance - DAT realizes the importance of having family and the busy schedule that brings. Managers allow team members to set a schedule and make up lost time when doctors appointments or emergencies come up. Some members prefer to come in early, while others closer to 9:00 and even 10:00 am. Culture - DAT has a monthly social allowing everybody to come together and well - socialize! Food trucks every few weeks are a nice bonus. Quarterly company wide meetings help employees understand what is going on in the industry, and team outings for major releases are a nice way to reward and celebrate. Evolving direction - DAT continues to evolve with a considerable effort put into cloud hosting, material design, and microservices architecture. Compensation - DAT offers competitive salaries and top performers are promoted internally.

Cons

DAT is a Roper subsidiary so although the medical insurance package is comprehensive, I wish that office visits had lower copays and lower monthly premiums.

Dear Software Development Team Lead, Thank you for sharing your experience. It’s especially good to hear there are, “No boring days,” that you see growth opportunities and promotion from within, and “Competitive salaries.” As you highlighted, DAT is “Evolving” and continuously adopting new technologies, and adapting to streamline our systems and processes. You also mentioned the cost of healthcare. To offset that, Human Resources recently got Roper to increase the 401(k) match for DAT employees.

Pros

I have been working at DAT since 2016 and it has been a pretty positive experience. The office culture is quite casual and the employees are warm and inviting. Management makes an effort to keep employees happy and comfortable with things like happy hours and lunches. They make an effort to recognize employees that work hard and reward them for their accomplishments. A lot of managers look internally when hiring and applying for open positions is encouraged. In my case, was promoted after my first year with the company.

Cons

The health care plan is not ideal and the attendance policies can be pretty strict.

Dear “Current Employee,” Congratulations on your promotion, and thank you for being part of the DAT team for over a year now. Along with highlighting many positives, in particular, the casual culture and the room to grow from within, you also mention the attendance policies. It’s true that to consistently deliver world class customer service and product support, DAT employees are held to high standards.
