Dexis Consulting Group Reviews

Pros

Dexis has done a particularly good job of transitioning to remote work and providing services and support to staff during the Covid crisis. Additional support (like a PTO bank) has been particularly welcome. A lot of change is being managed right now ... and with two acquisitions adding additional staff, cultures, issues... I am particularly impressed with how leadership is managing it all. These are hard times for every company right now. Dexis has had no layoffs, reductions of hours or benefits, or other cuts that I see happening with a lot of Dexis' top competitors.

Cons

Nothing really - everyone is working hard to make sure we come through this crises as a strong and healthy company with strong and healthy staff.

Pros

Dexis is full of smart, go-get-em types, most of whom are willing to do jump into completely new things to help one another out. I work on a lot of proposals and watching bid teams comprised of people from across the company who probably haven't worked together as a team before come together and work effectively (and have fun) is always inspiring to see. I admire and learn so much from our Senior Leadership, and am glad that they mostly trust Manager-level staff to run the day to day business and spend a lot of time preparing for the future, 3+ years down the line. We have really good benefits including some that are virtually unheard of in the development space like paid maternity/paternity/adoption leave, infertility coverage, and flexible work hours/remote work. PTO increases with tenure, starting at just 2 years. Accounting/Payroll has been a sore spot for years but recent hires (Kenya!) have made things so much better already.

Cons

Experiences vary by project team, and by Division/Department, but leadership is aware of the discrepancies and trying to resolve them so that employees are treated as similarly as possible no matter who their supervisor is. HQ will be moving offices soon (timing unclear; dependent on sale of the current office), likely to somewhere in Virginia (Rosslyn is what we've heard) and so that may make some people's commutes a bit tougher.

Pros

Generally a nice and supportive staff and structure. I like the CEO Mihir Desai, he's very passionate about running his company well and encouraging his staff to produce quality work.

Cons

If you're part of an offsite team (and not a lead on that team) expect to be forgotten by HQ and mid to upper management. If you have a poor team lead or your contract looks to be ending then you might as well just start looking for another job as you'll get very little support from HQ. There is little appreciation for technical skills or broad based knowledge but there is a lot of advancement for those who "know people" in the HQ staff.

Pros

Good benefits Mostly functional teams

Cons

Immature managers who don't know what they're doing If you're on a contract, you're just a body
