Pros

You get to do a wide variety of tasks, so things rarely feel repetitive.

Cons

Nobody to talk to. You can commiserate with coworkers, but the company is tiny, and revolves around the owner, who often inserts himself to yell at people, while being generally disconnected from anything actually happening beyond sales/finances. Any criticism singles you out, and you end up with a target on your back. There are only the "in" group, and the "out" group. The company has been around since the 90s, but doesn't appear to have grown at all beyond possibly making the owner more wealthy. Any talk of improving things generally gets hand-waved away, and you end up discouraged, and deflated. As you learn the company lore, you find out about a troubling history of favoritism, including wild office parties, and excused behavior that would be beyond the pale anywhere else, but is apparently acceptable so long as you're part of the 'clique'. Pay is laughable, and benefits just shrink every single year. Food/snacks in the office are a mix of expired food, frozen burritos, and beer.

It’s hard to do the right thing all the time. We’re going to do our best to debunk this review while still taking the high road. The reviewer was just fired for cause for clear misconduct (here’s the RCW that defines misconduct for clarity: https://app.leg.wa.gov/rcw/default.aspx?cite=50.04.294). He’s pissed at us about it. But he should be mad at himself. Nobody made him behave the way he did. He deserved to get fired, and we’re glad that he’s gone. We work really hard to do the right thing by our team, hence the other 17 glowing reviews. We have awesome food, great parties (that sadly aren’t wild at all), and almost everyone on our team in leadership has risen through the ranks with time. PS, none of the snacks are expired. Seriously? We’ve doubled the size of our business in the past 5 years and we love to hire, train and empower people to do great work. We hope you’ll join us on that journey if you’re reading this and are interested in applying for a job with us. We’ll get back to our mission now that we’ve cleared up this pile of misinformative garbage.

Pros

A lot of companies will brag about their work-life balance, benefits, transparency, commitment to their mission/vision, and so on. Dynamic Computing, however, is the first business I've worked for that can boast those things without exaggeration. Management is thoughtful and deliberate in facilitating a culture of honesty, trust, and *actually* using the NERF guns around the office. In addition, everyone I work with genuinely wants to help each other (and our clients!) succeed, and work together as a team toward mutual goals. No one is perfect, but our management makes a point to foster open communication and encourage feedback for when things aren't ideal. I don't ever have to play word games or try to skirt around an issue - I can say how I honestly feel without fear of repercussion or being brushed off. I feel like my opinion is welcomed and valued! I'm excited to see how Dynamic grows in the future, and I'm even more excited that I get to be a part of it. No exaggeration.

Cons

I wish I didn't live so far away, but the free ORCA pass sure helps. Other than that, no cons that I can think of. I'll work here forever if Kevin will let me!

Pros

Small, family-like feel to the work place - Beautiful office - Smart, encouraging, and open-to-feedback management - Good clients - Never boring - Great benefits - Lots of fun to go with your hard work - Ability to move up and grow in your position and the company

Cons

Things can get a little crazy when someone is gone or if things are busier than usual, since we are small enough that there is not much to fall back on (The company has its ebbs and flows, so this is not an all-the-time thing) - If you are looking to work from home often, this is not the place for you

Thanks for taking the time to write a review. I've got to agree wholeheartedly - we've got an amazing office and environment and are excited to see things continue to grow and improve every day. While that approach creates some challenging and crazy days, I hope that you'll agree it's all worth it once we achieve our goals and get a chance to take a breather.

We are grateful that your experience has been generally good so far. We'd like to correct a couple of misconceptions from your review. Two-thirds of our senior managers and 100% of our senior technical employees started as Service Technicians and were promoted from within. We are deeply committed to professional growth amongst our employees. Opportunities for promotion are earned based on attitude and performance, not given freely. Salary levels are determined through the use of multiple data sources, including industry-specific and general salary surveys. All employees are at or above market in their roles, with additional pay based on achievement of goals and targets. Annual raises are provided based on performance and are consistently higher than average annual wage growth. We are 100% committed to creating opportunities for our team members to grow, both inside of our company and beyond for the benefit of their individual careers.

Working Hard and Playing Hard

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.

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.
