Pros

Team mentality, visionary leadership, productive paranoia. DSG leadership is very focused on looking around corners and making sure we are proactive in transforming/evolving our business to lead into the future. We take competitors seriously and ask critical questions of our business, but believe we are going to win and have confidence/conviction toward growth. We believe the store teams and our DCs are the most important talent in our company. It's not a BS mantra, we really do. We are constantly trying to do the right thing by our people, with an intense focus on what it means to our store and DC teammates.

Cons

Many priorities and we work fast. This can lead to times when we need to re-center and focus on what's important. Leadership does a good job of recognizing this and we do our best to ensure prioritization to avoid burnout.

Pros

DSG is a very benefit heavy company so if you like pizza parties and a "fun" work environment then DSG is for you.

Cons

The pay is terrible! It's a company that is made up of 80 to 90% lower to middle managers who have no idea how to manage. They bring you on with the promise of growth and opportunity only to weigh you down with work that is way out of your paygrade for "exposure". Then they take credit for your work to look better for the "big bosses". So not only will you not be compensated for your efforts you won't be recognized for your work either. Unless you're EXTREMELY desperate for work I would suggest looking elsewhere.

Coworkers, My managers were cool for the most part, Decent discount

Cons

Worst pay, no chance for advancement, terrible metrics to meet, always "busy work", customers, always schedule too few people because "budget" so you have to do way more work for awful pay,
