Poor work life balance with little appreciation - Anonymous employee DeanHouston Employee Review

The work is interesting and often rewarding, especially when teams collaborate to come up with unique solutions to client and internal challenges. Most of the staff are very dedicated, but willing to have fun. The Covington location is outstanding with great options for dining and entertainment.

The DeanHouston culture has a strong service mindset, and that can be inconvenient when important requests come in outside of work hours. Periods of rapid growth or contraction have created staffing challenges.

Ability to earn many certifications.

Many colleagues seemed unhappy with their jobs and seemed overworked. Sometimes they’d openly complain about sacrificing their personal lives for work and feeling pressured to never use the “unlimited” PTO. Not a whole lot of attention was paid to interns, and despite being very capable and eager to learn, I wasn’t trusted to do any work besides simple data entry tasks. Maybe this was just my department though, because when I started to connect with others outside my department, they were happy to train me on things and utilized me a little better! Just felt like the culture could be a little better… but maybe things have changed since?
