Vantaggi

DCi looks like an awesome company from the outside, and it is but there's definitely some areas of improvement. The office is nice, dog friendly, stocked kitchen, free wine access after 5pm, workout classes to take during the day, good benefits, PTO. You get invited to a lot of industry events, venue openings, etc and they support you to go out and see whats new and exciting in town. You can even expense a nice dinner if it's at a brand new restaurant that could possibly used for clients. It's a great place to learn about the events industry from all aspects. Entertainment, decor, client relations, operations, sites, venues, etc. You get to touch everything and learn great skills and gain good knowledge.

Svantaggi

They work you to the bone and the pay low. You're never able to celebrate wins because you're always stressed about the next 10 programs you're working on. The design department barely knew if designs they worked hard on were picked. Each person working in a non director/senior level position was working nonstop, to the point where some would work countless nights to get proposals in to their respective reports to get nothing in return besides an email saying "thanks". It's almost as if you felt like you lived to work. The business development department were the least appreciated, they were put in middlemen positions speaking to clients, design teams, development teams, ops teams and would have to be the problem fixers for the sales team without reaping any of the benefits of the sales. It's a flawed system where the higher ups benefit and the lower positions never do, in all departments. They're also weirdly not inclusive. There's a definite demographic here, you can't miss it right when you walk in the front door.
