Pros

Not a single pro. I felt compelled to write this review after seeing the blatantly fake reviews from the owner.

Cons

I worked at DI years ago and was thinking about them today. I don’t know why I never took the opportunity to write a review, but I want to talk to the folks coming right out of college: do not accept an offer from this company, even if you’re desperate. It’s not worth the pain or humiliation of working for the owner, and you will likely quit in a rage or be fired. The owner is…something else. I can’t even describe it. He told me in front of various team members that I would always be a worker bee (not true) because I didn’t have what it takes to be a director. He also told me in front of various team members that I “wasn’t doing well”. He told me on the phone that I needed to “grow a pair of balls.” On my first day, he yelled at me from his office for sending someone to his voicemail because he’s a “very busy man”. You will be treated like an absolute dog if you work here. I was young, inexperienced, and didn’t know how to stand up for myself. This company is severely dysfunctional and they prey on people right out of college for exactly the reason I mentioned above. Low pay for skilled work with a healthy amount of hostile work environment on the side. After I was fired, he had the gall to call me and ask for help on something. The verbal abuse was unlike any company I’ve ever worked for. I felt more respected and valued working at a grocery store for minimum wage. I say this earnestly: do not accept an offer from this place. There are so many other organizations and companies out there who will treat you with decency that it’s just not worth the stress or anxiety. The only thing DI was good for was learning how NOT to treat employees after I began managing teams.

Pros

Lots of learning experiences Lots of room for growth Teaches you the industry

Cons

Upper management, have seen employees threaten to get sued by the owner for trying to quit Increase in responsibility does not mean increase in pay Extremely toxic work environment, get told you aren't a good worker if you don't arrive early and leave late, but you don't get paid extra. No reimbursement for driving hours to job sites every day, lots of cost in gas and car upkeep that you will need to cover out of pocket
