Pros
Dexis is an organization made up of dedicated, energetic, optimistic, capable, welcoming, and intelligent people. It's a breath of fresh air working for an organization that is transparent with its employees and committed to ensuring their professional development and happiness. Benefits have continued to improve over the years: professional development funds, gym reimbursement, 401K match. There's also a yearly performance bonus and a systematic review system. They've also recently instituted a salary banding system attached to levels, performance, and years experience, which makes things more transparent and provides a clear growth path - work was done to make sure all employees are at least at the min of their level. As a growing organization, there are -as you can imagine - growing pains, but the organization has made a conscious effort from the beginning of growth to keep the small business culture, give back to its employees, and deal with space and long-hour issues. There are many spaces to engage with other peers - wine downs and bagels on Fridays, random acts of coffee pairings, kickball, happy hours, summer and holiday parties, and Top Chef competitions. I continue to recommend Dexis to anyone who would be a good cultural and professional fit for the organization. It's certainly not a place where you can just show up to, put your head down, and hope to "fly under the radar". I appreciate being a part of the growth of an organization that I'm proud to work for.
Cons
Most of the cons have to do with the rapid growth and continue to improve: office space - noise levels and being spread among four different offices; long hours and blurred lines in day-night; parking/transit not being partially covered - though it is pre-tax deductible; 401K match, but no profit sharing; health insurance is solid, but dental doesn't cover any orthodontics; salary is now competitive, but with the banding newly in place, you can see when you fall right at the minimum of the level you are in (which can be less than the max of the level below!) although you are in the mid of years experience and "high" in performance reviews, and it can be frustrating given the long hours and blood, sweat, tears given in the growth. All in all though, it's a great start and I'd rather have the system in place than the opaque compensation process at other organizations.
