Pros

Perks are top notch. Can’t beat them.

Cons

Too many politics & hoops to jump through to get any real work done. Gotten too big for our own good. No structure, toxic environment for designers & creatives. We’re all on the same team but it feels like everyone is competing to get whatever is on their agenda done, nothing else matters besides that.

Thank you for your contributions to DraftKings success. The company is going through much change. We doubled in size last year which will cause some friction in work processes. Your manager and HR Business Partner are great resources to field your feedback. DraftKings is a special company, and your input will aid in our continued success. We appreciate your thoughts. Jason

Pros

The pros about this place is that if you want a quiet area to work when you do work there out of 3 days out of the week that they have you work there. At least that's what it was when I worked there I don't know if they've changed it. Then you work 2 days at home. It's very quiet. Most the time there is nobody there. They will train you and help you but you will eventually have to be able to do it on your own.

Cons

If you switch over to departments don't depend on the company keeping you. If you mess up. The company was literally going through a buyout with the lottery company when I was working there and everything was crashing. So I got let go because there were a lot of errors and the system that they upgraded to was worse than the one that we worked on. So basically if anything happens with the systems just make sure that you know what you're doing and that you catch up on everything.
