Pros

Great first-line managers. I've made some good friends here and like my co-workers. Great products with a loyal customer base. Most people want to do a good job and make great products.

Cons

The executive leadership team is a joke. They tell the CEO only what he wants to hear, not what's really happening or how the rank and file feel. The CEO is pushing hard to get everyone back into the office, saying that's how work gets done. We've been working remotely very successfully for the past 18 months; profits are up and we're making money. His view of the world is his only - you better agree or move on. Many are moving on. Very few paid holidays. They throw in 2-3 floating days to use for things like the day after Thanksgiving and MLK, when most companies give those days PLUS a couple floating days. Poor project planning and execution. No bonus structure with meaningful bonuses, even though the company is making a lot of money. They could be much more generous considering the amount of profits coming in. If you're desperate enough to hire on, negotiate a high salary, you won't get big raises or bonuses going forward.

Pros

None really.. they are the worst

Cons

If you're sharing your personal experience, it's best to stick to specific observations and avoid statements that could be interpreted as factual accusations. Here's a rewritten review: > 1 Star My experience at DAT Solutions was extremely stressful and disappointing. Management and supervisors often presented themselves as supportive, but I frequently felt that business priorities came before employee well-being. The workload was often overwhelming, and I felt there was little concern for work-life balance. The environment could be very political at times, and I experienced situations where coworkers were not always supportive or collaborative. The company also has a significant global workforce, which may impact opportunities and team dynamics depending on your role. In my opinion, leadership within Product Support II and the Specialist teams was one of the most challenging aspects of working there. Communication, recognition, and employee support did not meet my expectations. Overall, this was one of the most stressful places I've worked, and I would not recommend it based on my personal experience. This version is more likely to be accepted by review sites because it focuses on your experience rather than making claims that may be difficult to verify.
