Pros

Cons
List of my excruciating pains I had to deal with at the D&P Chicago office. I worked in the office, I was new to Chicago and I found this job through a recruiting agency. This company is all about your rank if your an EA you will be treated like a bottom feeder. In my opinion this isn't right. I wasn't an EA but based off my observation it's pretty bad. If this is your only options for income, my recommendation is that you just sit at your desk, type away, nod your head and job search in your free time. - Micro aggression are pretty common in the Chicago Office location among peers and management - harsh hours - poor management - salary rates are terrible - conservative work environment - cubicles - not a sociable environment - Favoritism among management and peers - Cliquish/felt like I was in highschool again - An environment where caste/religion/gender based jokes are made and laughed at - Conservative - Lacks communication - Work and Life balance is terrible - Sweat shop
