Pros
When times were good a good place to work
Cons
When the numbers were not hitting decisions were not always the best
Pros
Good, positive company culture where the employees are listened to. Some good, generous staff benefits. OK office location and facilities.
Cons
Very conservative, risk averse organisation. Would rather accept inefficient work practices and processes than change anything. Salary on the low side when compared to competition. Senior Management has been their for ages so they have an unrealistically positive view of the companies culture. If you have been at DD for over 2 years, so are accepted, for the first 2 years your opinions and concerns are generally ignored.
Advice to Senior Management
Constantly cutting costs will not lead to business growth. You need to identify where inefficiencies are and actually make changes rather than just stick with the status quo.

Being a smaller organization, processes and policies are not well defined.

Poor salary structure, not a good management.

Professional Experience coupled with the opportunity of working with very talented people. This gives one the opportunity for proactive development and good networking.

The company is not that competitive in terms of salary and benefits. They also have a habit of keeping one on contract for extended periods of time....my guess is that it makes termination easy.

unbalancing condition between scope of work and salary
