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

I started off as a sales associate seasonally during college, and have seen great advancement since i started.

Cons

I can't really think of any - I guess the fact that it is such a big company and sometimes I feel lost in the shuffle.
