Pros

Pay and benefits ok Good and friendly teammates in Chicago Promising products Local leadership supports its people Marketing budgets Good partnership with sales

Cons

Projects itself as a tech company but runs itself like an old-line manufacturer Top leadership in Malmesbury and Singapore is schizophrenic, cold and short sighted; very short term focused Complete absence of diversity among top leadership and board Lots of red tape to get anything done Won’t get the tools you need to be effective Working effectively with Malmesbury is far from a partnership - they are very top-down with one-way narrow decisions that are rarely thoughtful or actually beneficial to the business outside the Malmesbury campus IT

Pros

- If your team/manager is great, that makes a huge difference - opportunity to take on huge responsibilities early in your career - camaraderie among coworkers - Some of the benefits are okay (health insurance, parental leave)

Cons

- Poor leadership with no real direction, at both the national and global level - Constant layoffs - Pay is not market rate (and they let you know that) - Everything is outsourced (designs, customer service, finance, etc.) - Dyson has become a market chaser rather than a market leader - Inflexible in-office policy (5 days, little exception) - Bonuses haven’t been paid in full in years Company is in a tail spin freefall. Jump ship while you can.
