Great Foundational Experience, Not the Long-term Answer
Pros
DHR has built a great culture that projects its Midwest values on a global scale; employees celebrate the collective success of the organization. It's a great environment for young professionals and post-grads looking to launch a career in executive search. You'll receive exposure to a lot of different industries and work with some impressive search partners (albeit most are past the pinnacle of their careers).
Cons
DHR provides great foundational experience for post-grads looking to break into executive search. However, due to below-market compensation and limited financial incentives to retain top performers, it's a churn-and-burn environment among the research population but leadership is ok with that - it's become the model under the family office.
