Good company - Systems Engineer Dice Communications Employee Review

Dice Communications is a great company to work for. Smaller sized, but quickly growing team feels like family. Senior management is young and fun, preach a healthy work-life balance but are also committed to the growth and success of the company. If you put the effort and do your work you will have plenty of flexibility, independence, and you will find opportunities for advancement.

Due to growth spurts, you may end up wearing more than one hat at times. This may be a good thing as you could be exposed to multiple facets of the business and possibly widen your career interests or opportunities. Maintain a great communication cadence with your peers, be honest, have a positive attitude and ​you will excel here.

In spite of the owners, the employees have managed to make the company somewhat successful. The engineers and operations teams put in long hours to keep their jobs.

Owning a company does not qualify one to run a company, and the owners are proof of this. They are a married couple that do not communicate, and often contradictory directives come from both. Maturity and poise escape them. I have been on the receiving end of an expletive laced tirade for issues I had no involvement with. An alarming turnover rate, the senior employee in the home market has been there 3 years, she is the assistant controller. Next is marketing, 1.5 years. All operations, customer service, and sales in the home market have less than a year with the company. Two of the three senior engineers have left the company in the past year. The remaining one is the owners brother.
