Pros
DT is a decent company. The leadership is enthusiastic and they don't micromanage. That's good for a person like me who hates people looking over his shoulder. They expect you to get the job done, but are willing to work with you and help build your skills and career instead of just dropping you off a cliff. DT is a great place for fresh college grads with not a whole lot of real world experience to gain that experience. So long as you're willing to work below industry standard wage. This is not to say the company is cheap, but they definitely expect you to prove yourself before throwing money at you.
Cons
As I eluded to in the Pros, DT isn't the best paying company in the world. Part of this is because they expect you to prove yourself. But part of it isn't. DT isn't the best place to be if you have a ton of experience and are used to making a butt-load of money. Also, DT isn't the place you want to be if you're used to sitting on your butt. Although there are over a hundred-fifty some odd people here, it's a tight ship. Everyone's job is important, and if one person isn't pulling their weight, the whole crew suffers.

Pros
Company gives you a varied experience and are actively always hiring. The employees are what make the company and they stick together.
Cons
Work life is non-existent and you are expected to work long hours for low pay all so the owners can get more money. DT is always hiring as their turnover rate is almost the same so the company is slowly either growing or declining.
