Pros

Pay is competitive Big brands Some nice perks

Cons

The culture is as bad as any I can imagine. They preach how they're special and care about people, but nothing could be further from the truth. Even their mantra on talent - "Geeks with Personality" - is hugely insulting, but they still hold it up as some kind of badge of honor. That's how incomprehensibly tone-deaf the "leaders" of this company are. Anyone who is a geek is not expected to have a personality? (Personality means unbridled avarice in this company, in case you were wondering.) Nepotism, misogyny, and prejudice are accepted as norms. I personally heard blatant examples of all of them from leadership on a regular basis. Senior leadership rules through fear and gaslighting people into making them feel less than and incapable of ever leaving. They will strip mine all of the value from your professional being and then discard you as soon as it's convenient for them. Stay away. There are so many better options out there for you. I cannot fathom why anyone would choose to work for this company.

I am sorry your time at DAC wasn’t as fulfilling as it is for many others. DAC’s 3 year average for attrition is 23%, far better than most companies in our sector. This year is a bit higher but as it is for all companies in this labour market. I appreciate that DAC isn’t for everyone but our most recent confidential employee survey indicates overall our staff are very happy at DAC. In addition, we are currently looking at adding more benefits and culture-building activities this Fall and into 2022 that are going to be very exciting.

Pros

The biggest pro is that I got a good laugh from reading some of the positive reviews on here. I really needed that since Ive been pretty miserable ever since I made the decision to work for DAC. Disclaimer: those positive reviews are 100% fabricated.

Cons

The most recent negative reviews pretty much sum it all up. Disrespectful, demeaning, crappy process, 0 lack of work-life balance and absolutely no training. One of my teammates lost a family member and was asked if she was able to cancel her breavement leave to jump on an urgent client meeting. Nothing that's discussed with HR is confidental, they will run to your manager and tell them what you said word for word which made my time at this company extremely toxic and I felt like I had no one to turn to. If you try giving constructive criticsm to upper management you paint a target on your back. It's their way or the highway. They've lost their best employees over the past few months and they are now starting to sweat and question what might be going wrong. I typically worked a minimum of 50 hours a week and still get told that upper management doesnt really consider that over time and that we cant hire more people because we still have capacity to take on more work. Everyone you talk to at that company is worked to the bone and simply exhausted. Hate that I've had to share my feedback on this forum but when upper management and HR don't listen this, unfortunately, becomes your only resort. Stay away from this place
