Pros

The management team has been with Dickson many years which provides a great deal of stability and direction. I was provided the opportunity to develop my sales and marketing skills in a team atmosphere. The strengths of this company are focused on the supportive people who work with you to be successful. I retired after a very successful 9 1/2 years with Dickson. I would recommend this company to a friend.

Cons

There were no downsides for working for Dickson for the organized, hard-working person who likes to work within a team.

Pros

Dickson is a 9-5 job, which allowed me to continue my schooling by being flexible with my schedule. As a new college graduate, Dickson allowed me to build my resume and experience in multiple facets. While being a small company, Dickson proved to be relatively drama-free and goal-focused. During my time at Dickson, we had ‘Friday Jeans Days.’ Dickson also offered summertime cookouts, occasional company outings, quarterly meetings, and quarterly bonuses. Overall, I had a good experience at Dickson.

Cons

There was no formal training or mentor-ship program. While being goal-focused, there was typically a lack of a plan to achieve that set goal. Being a small company, sometimes things turned into the ‘he-said, she-said’ game. Despite hard work and dedication, it is very hard to move up the ranks at Dickson, given its small-business nature and existing management.

Pros

Great people to work with. Had some of the best mentors from my time at Dickson. It is also a financially stable company that I think will continue to be successful due to it's culture focused on process improvement and calculated risk.

Cons

Honestly nothing bad to say. Only left to go back to business school and get a more diversified experience across industries. Would definitely recommend Dickson to a friend and continue to stay in touch with people I worked with there
