Pros

I have been immersed in the Dynamics Vision and innovative technology for almost 9 years. My previous experience included Steve Jobs' NeXT Computer Company and several other start-ups in the silicon valley. The list of Pros for Dynamics is very well suited for the individual who really desires to stretch their imagination and hone existing skills. Those who really want to become integrated into the evolution of technology that quite frankly did not exist or even contemplated before our CEO, Jeff Mullen created Dynamics are welcome. I see some very negative comments on 'Glass Door' about the qualities of the CEO. I have worked with several start-up CEOs in my career and from my experience, driving technology, creating awareness of what is possible in the financial community and starting a new company from scratch is an awesome responsibility and very very few people have the drive, brains and commitment to be successful. CEOs of established companies also have awesome responsibilities but it is not the same for a start-up. Personally, Jeff has allowed me to utilize my background to produce technology that even surprised me; the comments about micro-management could not be further from the truth. Course corrections, product definitions changes and other external forces require all of us to be extremely flexible with out losing our focus or our sense of commitment; that is not micromanaging in my mind. The best CEOs sense those changes and plots a new course for the product in time to solve them. If you want to be part of something where you actually can 'leave your hand prints on the walls' then Dynamics is that opportunity. Norman E. O'Shea-Chief Production Technology Officer Dynamics Inc.

Cons

The only negative (con if you will) is that sometimes Dynamics brings on folks who are not really sure of their skills, lack a strong sense of self worth or simply do not function well in a start-up and then leave the company but feel compelled to write very negative and most of the time false impressions of the company. As part of the hiring team, we also pride ourselves on vetting to make astute choices of the folks that we want to join us. Sometimes we are disappointed.

Pros

Since day one I have been treated as if I have been part of the team for 10 years. They really understand a work/life balance. The team is great and very helpful. CEO is very knowledgable and shares his knowledge and helps others learn. The enviroment is very team oriented and they take the time to catch everyone up to speed, even with previous projects. Good benefits. Cutting edge industry changing projects.

Cons

Computers could use some updating.

Pros

The people you suffer with are the only highlight

Cons

- The stale/stagnant upper "management" (They're not really management because the CEO micromanages absolutely everything). - The CEO tells everyone they are useless so that they won't feel like they deserve a raise. - The CEO wants to only hire desperate people because, they have no where else to go. - The CEO micromanages everything and prevents engineers from engineering solutions (the whole point of their job) - The CEO has extremely bad "good idea fairy syndrome" where he enacts last second changes to processes, software, equipment, etc. without any input. Those decisions lead to extra support needed on weekends, significantly slowed processes, and pointing fingers at everyone else for being the problem. - The CEO will never admit he makes mistakes, calls you a liar when you call him out and show him evidence, and challenges people to blame him for the issues occuring - I could go on and on, but you have to understand at this point that you shouldn't be working here. Do not believe the fake 'good' reviews on here. The CEO says that Glassdoor is for collecting negative reviews so that Glassdoor can hold the company for ransom to remove all the bad reviews for a large sum of money.
