Pros

There are lots of good ideas on how to build a great company culture and give employees opportunities to learn and grow. Lots of smart, hardworking people work here. I appreciate that they do their bests to part on good terms and if you really want to leave they send you the paperwork and cut you a check in good time. They don't attempt to punish you financially by withholding checks or refusing to sign paperwork.

Cons

I answered an ad for a writing job and got a telemarketing job just like all the other telemarketers that worked there. The promise is that if you work in that role for a period of time and use it to learn about the company, other opportunities will open up. The problem is turnover and because people get fired or quit at such a high rate there is never an opportunity to move up or move to a better role. As part of the onboarding, they had everyone take a personality test which categorizes each employee with a combination of two dominant colors. The CEO and everyone close to him have the same two dominant colors (I think it was red and green). If you were blue/yellow it was like you had AIDS in the 90s; people who are red/green can rationalize that your personality is not transmitted in any way that they need to be worried about but, the fear that it is still lingers and you can tell people are scared no matter how polite people try to be. The test is supposed to create a culture of awareness and sensitivity but instead creates an excuse to "other" people who actually are sensitive, creative, and intuitive over people who are direct, rational, decisive... The person who actually got the writing job that we all wanted was, of course, a red/green. To be fair, she had been working there for a while. She had performed well in a lot of different roles and what they were really hiring for was her replacement. Still certain red/greens all hung out and favored each other and lauded the virtues of the personality test that brought them together. It's a weird way to form a clique. All together with the personality test favoritism, high turnover rate, fake job listings and such it starts to feel like a trap. What kept me coming back to a job I didn't really want was the people. I liked them in all of their diverse color combinations. That experience was really precious to me. Most of the people I met seemed to be nice people, agreeable, polite, really smart, and interesting. There's always that one person, though, who works in another department, in another part of the building, that doesn't really need to cross my path, ever, who likes to gossip. That for me was too much. There are not enough selling points for this job to allow for a manager, of all people, to make it her DAILY order of business to march all over the property spreading gossip that nobody asked for.

Pros

The Monthly luncheon is great .The owner of the company comes in and gives us a update on whats going on with the company anything new that the world is going through and how it effects us as a team in DPS . The bonuses are great .Depending where you work at the dress code is casual ,for example production its casual at admin you have to dress up. Managers are great they help us succeed in what we are doing in are jobs and sometimes in our personal lives when we ask.

Cons

Well the only cons I know of is what I do to myself . I can not blame DPS if I do not come in ,have a bad attitude thats on me.
