Positive Reviews From DCS Corp Employees

  • What did you like most about the interview process?
    spoke to more than one person who I would work with after joining the company
  • What makes you most happy at work?
    The projects we support and how they impact the soldiers, sailors, marines, airmen serving on active duty.
  • What are some of the best things about your team?
    No micromanagement - team pitches in to help one another for larger or extenuating circumstances. Streamlined processes - Manager communication is great!

Constructive Feedback From DCS Corp Employees

  • What needs to change to make the company culture better?
    Stop paying everyone equal overtime instead of one shift does 8 hours the next shift does 12 to 16 and rotate. All this just to make sure that the preferred employees who are just Yes Men and don't know the job are paid more. Management and supervisors need a complete overhaul without retaliation
  • What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
    Learn how to do the job instead of just walking around waiting for your shift to end. Managers and supervisors are too busy incentivizing people who are part of their good old boy system with performance incentive bonuses for personal reasons previously discussed like big purchases
  • Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
    I've been an employee here for more than 5 years and everyone that is brought on has lived experience but gets paid way too much. All management are making six figures Plus wow the vast majority of the workers who do the bulk of the work even administrative don't even touch 70k.
