Worst place I've ever worked

Anonymous employee

Pros

I can't think of one PRO for working at DB

Cons

Everything - was hired and told my job was going to be completely different than what I was doing. When I got there, they had nothing for me to do. For months I sat there not learning anything. The ONE responsibility I was given could have been done by an intern yet Senior Management wouldn't let you control it. They are overly involved in EVERY THING yet don't get anything accomplished because too many people are involved in one thing and no one can agree on it. They are only worried about their annual reviews. ALSO no promotions for 3 years. Dumbest rule I've ever heard.

Nice place to work

Business Outlook

Pros

Atmosphere is very nice and everyone is very helpful. Lots of benefits that you get right on your start date, no 30 or 60 day waiting period for benefits. Training is abundant. Lots of cultural diversity and nice people to work with.

Cons

To be promoted, you must obtain two consecutive years of "Very Good" or better rating. Sometimes, this is not dependent upon your performance, and is decided upon by way upper management on if raises are able to be given or not. You can only try to "transfer" laterally to a position with the same "title" as you, after you have been with the company for a year.
