Worst company to work for!

Pros

Nothing to appreciate. An environment of distrust is no place to spend nearly eight hours a day. Is there anything positive about working for this next company? Probably not.

Cons

Job seekers should steer clear of this shady company.Don't get fooled by the reviews here. They required you to place a review here in Glass door and it should be a five star review or else they will also dismiss you like the rest of the employees without any warning. Good thing I'm no longer here so at least I can be honest about my worst experience here. First of this company never followed professional ethics. They gave fake promises, no salary increase, no appraisal and worst boss ever.They don't care about their people. They have fired a lot of good employees already. They have poor management, bullying staff, no proper training, communication is unprofessional & disrespectful, and unhappy attitude. The company has a bad reputation, different people give you different answers about job duties, there are no clear goals for you to work toward & ultimately leading to a confusing and disastrous job situation. Additionally, this company skirts overtime pay and they don't care if you're sick, you just gotta work for them. Im telling all the jobseekers "It’s not worth applying to this company."

I'm sorry you were disappointed as a Dickson employee and we wish you much better luck with your next venture. In the relatively short time I've been here, I've observed opportunities for improvement but not near the level of your Cons. We have a top notch Sales Training program based on the book CustomerCentric Selling (by Bosworth & Holland) using a local professional training firm -- every sales executive goes through this training upon hire and has subsequent follow-up sessions with the trainer. We are also working with a professional hiring and retention agency to roll-out an annual performance review program that includes a confidential interview 1-on-1 with the agency allowing employees to provide direct, and at times difficult, feedback to make us better. As to your claims about OT and other allegations, we had a Employment Lawyer review and update our Employee Handbook to ensure our policies are fair and consistent with employment best practices. We have rolled-out this updated Employee Handbook outlining policies to which we are legally bound to comply. All new employees are provided a copy along with an overview of our policies. We are not perfect, but we are continuously improving how we work together to help our Customers.

Pros

Casual environment, paycheck, benefits. "Perks" if you want to call it that.

Cons

Company was recently sold, hope the new owners do better. Management is unprofessional and unfair. Nepotism and favoritism is rampant. There's an unhealthy balance to how things are managed. Training is not good. Upper Management creeps around checking on people. Very weird. And if they don't like you, forget it.

Managers creeping around does not sound good. I joined about when this comment was submitted. Please, if you are still discouraged, I hope you will either approach me directly to discuss your concerns or find a way to communicate your concerns through a co-worker. Your direct feedback will remain confidential and will help me make Dickson a better place to work and develop.

Pros

Great Culture, friendly and smart people. I feel you can make really an impact since the first day and everybody is happy to help you, as long as you put enough work.

Cons

I don't think there is any particular cons. Best company where I have ever worked at.
