Dewberry isn’t so much a company as a group of business units, so lots of the good reviews on here are for people and business units that aren’t central/corporate or have a totally different culture. In terms of main office/corporate, this company doesn’t support you, rewards mediocre employees who aren’t good at their jobs, and the Dewberrys suck every last nickel they can out of the business units. Business units actually rent their furniture from the main company as part of their overhead. Lots of issues with sexism, racism, backwards thinking, and the people in HR are some of the worst culprits. Below market compensation, laughable vacation time (2 weeks for the first five years), low 401k match. When several offices had to close down in Texas due to hurricanes, the company technically kept the offices open and required employees to take leave so they wouldn’t have to pay for the time. Then they bragged internally about their leave-sharing policy, allowing other employees to donate leave to the hurricane victims, like it was a good deed on their parts. Th idea of “The Dewberry Way” being a supportive family-like culture is smoke and mirrors designed to convince employees to be satisfied with less. Constantly undersupplied in offices and painfully obvious that the bottom line is all that matters.
