Daktronics Employee Reviews

I am a student software intern and would highly recommend to other students. they are flexible with school, pay good, keep you busy, and really get you familiar with SCRUM development

Terrible leadership. No true business or management backgrounds for upper management. They are behind the times and are handcuffed with paralysis by analysis. Extremely conservative. Pay is horrendous for loyal employees and growth opportunities are never presented to employees.

During employment, worked in several different areas. Much room for personal growth. However, many employees feel under-compensated, and the levels of middle-management are staggering.

Initially I really enjoyed my job and we were fully staffed. Then as positions opened up they did not fill the vacancy but still expected the same production. Our line has not been fully staffed in a very long time. After being injured on the job I was repeatedly harassed by my supervisor and HR.

They have clear goals and don't sugarcoat things with corporate jargain

great with peoples and smart when it comes to critical thinking about a job task

They are very understanding when it comes to absences and what not

Growth opportunites. Recognizing talent and paying for it if they want to be a true leader in all LED industries. Management and supervisors need to be accountable for consistent revenue loss in certain departments.

Understanding employee value and commitment.

Showing appreciation for employees. It's pretty bad when they can't even say "hi"

Work to keep current employees instead of underpaying and under-appreciating us until we leave

Pay tenured employees what they are worth. Optional restricted or non restricted stock compensation. They need a better 401k and options within it. Support is a key. They do not backfill like for like if they backfill at all. Overworked employees and understaffed.

Meager performance increases despite accepting more and more responsibility.

The department I work in is the most physically demanding job and the compensation does not reflect that.

After having done some research I have found that I would need a 20% raise to be paid fairly compared to other people that do similar work for other nearby companies. Dak also doesnt give out bonuses, you could spend the last year working on a big project and when it's done you barely get a thanks

They take ownership of projects, clients and faults. We hold ourselves accountable for what we work on even thiugh its far from our scope of responsibilities.

Close-knit. Have worked together for years.

We work very well together and are just "know" what the others are going to do. We can communicate with each other without actually saying anything

People abuse the work from home option and get a lot less work done when working from home, meaning the rest of us have to pick up the slack.

Has become a bigger company but still feels somewhat like a family. Flexible WFH policies are a huge plus.

The team and employees make the customer feel comfortable and they trust us as experts.

Reward commitment and employee input with fair wages and benefits.

There are too many "chiefs". It's not necessary to have a supervisor, crew lead AND line lead. It's a waste of money--especially the line lead position in the Assembly area

In-person interviews used managers from several competing departments to determine best fit of candidate.

It was short and efficient

I would have them be much better at gollowing up eith potential employees quicker. Took me well over 6 months to get hired. Never got a response I had to reachnout to them

My coworkers and our synergy with our workflow.

that it's only a 3 day week. My coworkers are phenomenal

Very uncertain about company financials. Major contracts depend on sporting venues.
