Pros

Community is tight knit, family oriented, diverse and the area is really beautiful. The DDAR team has great leadership and pays competitively for those in leadership roles.

Cons

Those in mid career positions are not paid quite as generously and it takes a lengthy period of time to advance within the organization because talented people stay there.

Pros

They were very flexible with hours and it was a fun place to work. There was lots of downtime to do other things while on the clock, and an e-bike to get around campus quickly.

Cons

Toward the end they got pretty strict about keeping your computer on a certain tab to take online tickets, and you could get in trouble for not doing it. It’s tedious work overall.
