A genuinely great place to work! - QA Manager DemandPDX Employee Review

DEMAND is an exceptional place to build a career in eCommerce. Having been here for many years and whilst moving through several different roles, I can say DEMAND is a company that invests in its people and consistently works on improving for the whole team and upholds its core values. - Exceptional Work-Life Balance is a key core value and not just a talking point. Currently there are three hour ranges, 20hrs (Part time), 35 &40 (Full time). The leadership team genuinely listens to feedback and works to ensure workload and capacity is at a level to prevent burnout and if there is an ask to work over hours, the employee is compensated in the form of hours worked as extra PTO that doesn't expire. - Commitment to Career Growth: The CEO and CIO are hands-on. They actively support internal transitions and create positions to align with an employee's evolving skill set and interests. DEMAND is constantly expanding and they ensure the team is able to transition into higher roles when needed to support the growth. - Excellent benefits & Culture: There are amazing people at DEMAND, smart, talented and above all kind and genuine. They're the sort that would give you their shirt off their back if you needed it. The CEO and CIO are always striving to improve what they offer, new life insurance additions, volunteering days and most recently a new insurance provider with better coverage are just to name a few.

Nothing is perfect and if I had to name one thing that's common in discussion is the want for additional PTO.

Pros - High quality professionals - Work-life balance - Great clients - Autonomy - Compensation I've been in the industry for 15 years and have worked at 3 different agencies. DPDX is head and shoulders above the rest. The pay is generous and the benefits are competitive. One perk that is easy to miss but has a huge impact is the unlimited unpaid time off. I use this frequently and it really bridges the gap any time life and my available PTO just don't align. But the main reason I love working at DPDX is the people. I've never had a lower stress job and the reason is that I can always count on my team and company leadership. The quality of the people I work with is unsurpassed. I never have to worry about what we are handing over to our clients. And I am very grateful to have found Chris Bergemann and Scot Johnston (owners - CEO, CIO). They are just good people who have been able to stay grounded over all these years. When I started, I thought everything was too good to be true and the "catch" would show itself. Almost 5 years later and no shoes have dropped! I'm proud to be a part of a company who puts people first (for real) and always supports doing what is ethical for our clients. I can't recommend this place enough - if you have a shot at working here, take it!
