Pros

None there are no pros

Cons

I interviewed here for what was a remote position. Their office in austin was in the middle of nowhere by the airport what looked like constructed out of shipping containers. They did the bait and switch informing me they’d want me to work in the office for up to a year then go full remote. Dodged a bullet walking out of the room.

Pros

I like my coworkers. 1/2 day on Friday (but longer days M-TH).

Cons

There are so many! Super, super high turn over. Probably because management doesn't care about or seem to appreciate the employees that are actually producing the work, and it shows. You are expected to work more than 40 hours per week, if not, you run the risk of being replaced by someone that will. For some reason this is more important than getting your work done efficiently. There is also some gender biased. Let's just say overall culture and morale is terrible.

I’m sorry to hear that our efforts are not meeting your expectation, but I’m thankful you took the time to share your feedback. At DBR we strive to maintain and grow the small company culture that made DBR a great place to work. As of late 2016, we have two new cross-functional teams working towards keeping company culture as a top priority. As a result, multiple internal communication initiatives were rolled out, one being “Appreciation Moments” which encourages leaders and colleagues to carve out a moment to appreciate positive qualities, behaviors and contributions. We have many longstanding employees and we're always welcoming new talent to our team, so we feel optimistic with the ideas we have for improving company culture and morale.
