Minority group nightmare

Pros

There are no pros other then the ability to work remotely.

Cons

During my time at DI I observed and experienced situations that I believe indicate a systemic issue with how minority groups are treated. Despite the company's public commitment to diversity and inclusion, the reality, as I perceived it, was starkly different. One of the most troubling aspects was the consistent harassment and discrimination faced by employees from minority communities – including people of color, indigenous people, people requiring accessibility accommodations, and LGBTQ+ individuals. This harassment took various forms and was not only deeply distressing but also went largely unaddressed by the company’s HR department. Complaints and concerns raised to HR seemed to be met with inaction, contributing to a work environment that felt hostile and toxic. Furthermore, the lack of effective measures to prevent or address harassment led to a workplace where such behavior could continue without significant consequence. This not only impacts the well-being of the affected employees but also undermines the trust in the company’s ability to ensure a safe and respectful work environment for all. For those considering a position at DI, it's important to be aware of these issues. While my experience may not be universal, it raises serious concerns about the company's commitment to protecting and supporting its minority employees.

Pros

Good benefits and good employees are the only two plusses that really stand out here. People are always willing to help out when asked and they were always helpful. Good location in South Burlington is in easy commute distance from Winooski, Milton, Burlington, Shelburne. I enjoyed working with the people.

Cons

Management has a CYA attitude. Though they say that have a Quality System, they don't follow it. If you raise issues about quality, you get frozen out and soon find yourself with a bad evaluation. Any efforts to bring the software into the 21st century are met with silence and reassignment. Also, management has an attitude that there are no real competitors, so there are no real reasons to improve.

Pros

There is room for growth if they deem you worthy of it. The salary is decent.

Cons

This company has a lack of vision and really scattered/shift priorities. The hierarchy is constantly shifting to make up for the inadequate knowledge base that exists within the company. It always feels like management is making up the rules as they go. There is a serious waste of talent on some individuals while others ride the wave and coast to the paycheck. Additionally, DI constantly boasts about their diversity and inclusion, but there is clear implicit bias for being white and or male. Women and minority groups will get paid lower, whether or not it is intentional. It appeared that the only people that faced repercussions were the minorities. If anyone paid attention to turn over in the past few years, it was always black/brown employees and women leaving positions because it is difficult to work in such an oppressive environment while watching your white coworkers praise each other for just showing up. Last, there is a complete breakdown of communication throughout the company. For a company that sells a medical device, it felt dangerous the way upgrades or drivers were released. It seemed like all of the departments were enemies and that you had to play a very strategic game if you wanted anything done quickly or correctly. There was a lot of discussion about how to correct this, but there was never usually any follow-through. There used to be Gallup surveys to see how things can improve, and then the company decided to just stop doing them because they could not fix the issues that were coming up in the survey. It was such a shame to see for such a small company that could have really overcome those barriers with just a little effort.
