Delaware Resource Group Reviews

Senior leadership: cares about themselves only that’s why everyone is severely underpaid. You will receive sexual harassment from the CEO. The COO used to care about employees now he cares about no one but himself since his promotion. You’ll hear from them the same thing over and over “we are growing” no it is a bunch of turnover, “we are family” false, “if you need something let us know” false you will be shunned for months if you ask, fired or quit bc ur done. makes fun of their own employees to other employees. they prefer to hire people they know they can walk all over belittle and manipulate. people have received harsh/hateful emails from upper management. No trust in employees and they micromanage everyone. Power is what they feed off of. Turnover: not bc of growth it is bc of the horrible work environment. Screaming from senior leadership at employees in front of other employees. cheap pay. being watched when walking in or leaving in the AM lunch or after work. more people in the building have worked here under 2 years during orientation you hear all the new people and think this is alarming. Remote: non existent unless you are a favorite. Holidays and Vacation: you are off. If you are salaried you work during those times. If you are hourly you will feel forced to work with no approved OT and not get paid bc it wasn’t approved. no backups in your position 90% of the time. Departures: put in a notice expect to be walked out immediately pack your office up prior otherwise they will ship it to u. An email will go out if ur lucky and it could be good could be bad who knows that day. dont get attached to ppl they will leave or get fired. Overworked: every employee has many tasks and some multiple jobs. no u don’t get paid more u get more put onto your plate then yelled at when u cannot get it all done. IT: horrible. things constantly breaking with no solution besides them saying it isn’t their fault. Exit interviews: for field employees not corporate bc they do not care about corporate employees thoughts. Too many people scared to post reviews bc of fear from the owners.

DRG promotes itself as a family company, making one believe that they are talking about its employees as a “family.” This is patently false. They are a family company in that DRG is owned, run, and absolutely under the thumb of one family, the Buseys. If you are not a Busey, you are expendable. And the family is toxic. In 2021 and beyond, working in a toxic environment is not something you have to suffer anymore, so do not put yourself in the employment of this company. You will give that family years of your life, and in return you too will one day suffer the same fate as so many before you, being suddenly terminated at-will or resigning, regretting the time you gave them. This is the culture of DRG, and it permeates every aspect of the day-to-day life of its employees: they treat your paycheck as a deduction from their own pockets, so you better be grateful. Every decision that leaves that building has to be approved by a Busey; you are an automaton, pushing buttons for the pleasure of the family until they grow bored of you, then discard you with the refuse. You are only there to serve them, and once you fall out of their graces, there is no recovery. Employees are under-appreciated, under-paid, and too easily cast aside. Turnover is incredibly high; most employees are new employees, not because of rapid company growth, but because they are replacing a terminated employee. I would estimate that turnover at the Corporate office has been about 50% over the last year. This significant turnover means that the company is always hiring – but ask yourself why they have so many open positions, and better yet, ask a former employee. There are a lot of them on LinkedIn. The family itself is prone to outburst, frequently yelling at each other and at their employees, publicly shaming hard-working professionals, name-calling, swearing, all the worst habits of poor management. They are a “family business,” just not your family. This is not a healthy company, it is not a positive work environment, and it is definitely not worth the pay. Your job will always be at risk, your efforts will never be fully appreciated. You can do better.
