DraftKings Employee Reviews about "company is growing"

Pros

Awesome employee benefits and company culture

Cons

The company grew quite fast. This means a lot of very qualified people are able to climb the ladder quickly, however this also means a few were promoted into roles that were outside their qualifications.

Pros

it is a very flexible company

Cons

very ambiguous environment, not a lot of structure

Pros

DraftKings is committed to making sure that everyone contributes to the business initiatives and makes an impact, including their interns. The company does a great job making everyone feel welcome and a part of the team. As an intern, I was able to work within the normal team dynamic, bring a feature from the planning stages (where I wrote my own tech plan) all the way to being shipped, learn new technologies and give input in every meeting I took part in.

Cons

Sometimes the company's bias for action means that code can be left undocumented, poorly tested, or otherwise sub-optimally maintained. The engineering on-boarding process has room for improvement.

Pros

I've worked for a few high-tech companies and there is no comparison. I am surrounded with smart, passionate, dedicated and talented employees that are collaborative, supportive and are authentic on how we treat one another. Company is growing so fast that career opportunities are every where. Culture and values are just not buzz words, it's the real deal here. If you don't fit any of the above, please don't try to get a job here. I love the unique company perks like the free on-site barber (yes, we get our hair cut at work), events (Cape Cod was awesome) and free tickets to sporting events.

Cons

We work a lot of hours but the trade off is that we are accomplishing amazing goals and creating opportunities for DK everyday. Recruiting cannot hire fast enough.

Pros

Great upside and growth within the company

Cons

None, great company to work for

Pros

Good people at this company

Cons

Lots of work at this company

Pros

- The company is full of dynamic, intelligent, and young people - Explosive growth and exciting potential - You have the opportunity to make a difference because the company is small enough to quickly adapt change - Perks that do not come with strings attached: free manicures, massages, blowouts/haircuts, food, beer/wine, yoga, trivia nights, group outings - Gorgeous modern office in Back Bay

Cons

- Still very much a male organization (no women in executive positions, mostly male employees), but the company is actively and genuinely working on diversity, equity and inclusion

Pros

Amazing company that treats everyone like family.

Cons

There are no negatives to this company.

Pros

Great company i really enjoy working here

Cons

None that I can think of

Pros

I have never worked at a company where all employees are so passionate about their work. Great environment and a fast growing industry. You are really valued as an employee and very willing to hear your ideas to better the company.

Cons

Can be a bit disorganized. Still functions as a start up even though they are an established company.
