Pros

Currently, there really are no pro's to working here other than subpar benefits and getting a paycheck, and that may not last much longer. The CFO is great and is very forward thinking.

Cons

Where do I start? Management is the good-ole boy network on steroids. "It" rolls downhill from the top. Long-term senior management are ready to retire and just doesn't care anymore, case-point: the election of the new top C-level executive. No room for advancement, no training programs, takes forever for expenses to be reimbursed, bonuses are taken away without any notice, top management treats "their people" drastically better than the long-term employees who built the company. Rumors of a move to another location smells like a workforce downsizing. After years and millions spent on building a product, it was abandoned due to not knowing what the market wanted in the first place, and the poor decision of off-shoring it resulted in a completely unusable product, and much wasted time and money. There is a reason DDS used to be "The Place" to work in Columbus. It was the original senior management and the long-term employees who have been there since day one. Most of those have left for better opportunities for a GOOD reason. they see the writing on the wall.

Pros

Delta Data is lead by top executives in both experience and ingenuity in developing software for the Mutual Funds industry. The executives bring an excellent balance to this company, and a bright point is Whitfield Athey, the COO. He is a dynamic leader well versed in the software requirements of the funds industry from all angles, including trading, fee management and data analysis of a most complex nature. Whitfield with the other executive team members have created new products and ensured the company will continue well past its 25 year history. Delta Data does not produce simple software products like Microsoft Word, they make complex ones and as such the products are flexible for individual customer needs. As a former employee I can also attest that Delta Data and Whitfield in particular take care of hard working employees and provide compassion with great leadership. I leave my name easily, unlike other posters, because I stand by my comments about Delta Data and know they are destined for nothing, but continued success. Tim Kelly

Cons

None noted and I would say keep up the good work.
