DMI reviews

Deep down, there is a sense of fatigue and exhaustion from the exceptionally relentless pace this firm requires of its employees. It's NOT for everyone. Increasing trends of higher turnover (2013 and beyond) is an indicator that although DMI leadership has its foot buried firmly on the gas pedal driving growth, it comes at a cost to those in the "engine room" making it happen thru blood, sweat, tears, and ridiculously long hours week after week. Those who do no live this "all or nothing" lifestyle for the benefit of the Bajaj family quickly find themselves regarded as "not committed" or "less talented" than their peers which ultimately pushes them out. If you are a VP or above in this org, you need a personal relationship with the CEO or COO to protect your role within the firm, otherwise make your super high numbers (quota) on time and consistently or you find yourself on the curb holding your luggage while the crazy train speeds off into the night. They will forget your name and all that you have sacrificed for them and replace you before the door fully closes. Very tough place to work, and in the end, it's much tougher to stay there once on board. Expectations are far above what "normal" companies expect of its employees, and most cannot sustain these expectations, if they can reach them at all. Frankly, the firm looks better if you are an outsider looking in compared to the other way around. Also, DMI was a highly successful small firm that made it big. Now they are no longer enjoying the benefits of bidding as small, privileged firm in the federal sector leaving them to compete with the much larger and better resourced giant firms...it's not going so well and probably will never improve, especially as competition in these markets increases at alarming rates year after year. The "fun times" of rapid company growth are probably over.

The CEO of this company is a figurehead; the COO is the one who runs the show, and encourages a culture of backbiting and mistrust. You will be told you do not know anything, you will be yelled at, and you will not have any freedom in your position. They will treat you horribly and when they lay you off (basically they find an excuse to get rid of you if they don't like you) they are really nasty. They also do some pretty shady things both during and after employment. They get rid of their best employees because these are the people who can see through their BS. You will be expected to work weekends pretty much all the time and have no work/life balance at all. Horrible company.
