Pros

The commitment to job growth, work/life balance, and culture is beyond anything I have ever seen. Everything about how the office feels is very deliberate, both in professionalism, and in keeping the work space relaxed and enjoyable to be in. Responsibilities in the job were given as supported training grew competency, rather than the 'Sink or Swim' approach at other jobs. Management regularly goes above and beyond their traditional responsibilities in terms of employee engagement and support. It is the only job I have ever been at that felt personally enriching at every level.

Cons

Its a small company, so upward growth is limited to how fast the company itself grows. However, management is very good at promoting from within when the need is there. Also, nerf darts sting, so be ready.

Pros

To know how great Dynamic Computing has been for me, you have to know where I worked previously. My previous job was as technician at a large corporation. The benefits there were not great, the cultural was lacking and management was closed door. If you had a problem with something it was considered making waves and any ideas you had to improve processes or fix reoccurring issues was dismissed out of hand. At Dynamic Computing management is open door policy. You can walk into the CEO's office if you have a problem or an idea on how to improve something and will be considered. You are expected to be able to prove or explain your idea or improvement, but all ideas are welcome and often implemented in some way. The cultural here is great. We have monthly work events and a couple all family events like Mariners games or Summer Cookouts. We also have monthly lunches or beer-thirty's for Workaversies and Birthdays where various food/snacks/beer is provided. For example, this year we had a panini press party, spaghetti party with homemade meat balls and 3 different sauces and multiple other smaller events. Currently, many of employee's are craft beer enthusiasts and hang out frequently outside of work. Uber anyone? Snacks and drinks are provided and you can make requests for the monthly order if you would like to see something special. Also, various frozen food is provided on a limited basis if you forget lunch or are working late. We currently have two company cars with decent sound systems for when you are going on-site complete with charging capacity and phone holders. Haha. We have a lounge with nice Italian leather couches and a PS4. We also have a monthly scotch club (non-work sponsored) where we have a tasting of fine Scotch & Whiskey along with cured meats and cheese.. Working smart and not harder is a mantra at Dynamic Computing and self monitoring and independence to complete work on your own are company values. This also does come with a support system for when you get over your head and anyone in the company is willing to help you or answer questions. Company values are based on how we can accomplish things, not focusing on the things we can't. Management gives us a clear direction of where we are heading even if we don't always make it there exactly as planned, so being flexible and able to work on your feet and adjust accordingly is critical. Taking ownership and initiative over projects/roles makes for new career opportunities as we are always striving for improvement and learning. Gaining new certifications in relevant areas generally comes with increased compensation. Tests and materials are reimbursed once you have passed.

Cons

Due the smaller size of our company it can get loud in the office space from people talking on the phone or to each other and the intermittent Nerf War. Participation isn't mandatory, but there have been innocent by-standers shot on occasion. As we go through growing pains since we recently moved in a nice new office about 1 year ago and have almost doubled in size since I started, we can outrun processes and workflows turning things in a more reactionary environment. This can be stressful as processes and workflows are rebuilt to fit the new structure. If you are looking for 9-5 job where you do the same thing everyday and have a clearly defined roles where you only have to work on X/Y/Z then this isn't the job for you. The pace here is fast and if you aren't used it, then it can be difficult to adapt and adjust. If you like working in a boring job and watching Facebook and trolling Reddit all day this isn't the job for you. Since I started working here my work/life walls have started to blur and need to unplug sometimes.
