DLP Capital

I want to start by saying that I genuinely love my job and my immediate team—but that is where it ends.

The high turnover at this company is not surprising. If you do not work in one of the corporate offices, it becomes clear very quickly that employee well-being is not a priority. Policies are filled with fine print stating they can be changed at any time, for any reason—and they are. Frequently.

Decisions are made simply because leadership can make them, not because they are ethical, practical, or supportive of employees. As long as something is legal, it seems to be fair game. The focus is entirely on increasing revenue and impressing peers, regardless of how those decisions impact the people doing the work.

There is a severe lack of:

- Accountability
- Communication
- Compassion

If you are satisfied with your current salary (assuming it isn’t reduced), enjoy the basic functions of your role, and find fulfillment in working with your immediate team, this can be an acceptable place to work.

However, if you are looking to be recognized for your hard work, grow professionally, or be considered for advancement, this is not the place for you. And if you want a firsthand lesson in how not to run a business, accept the offer—and bring a notepad.

I worked through multiple operational and management changes and remained loyal to the company for years, but the culture became increasingly concerning. Leadership frequently emphasized “faith,” “family,” and company culture publicly, while internally there was a lack of accountability, poor communication, and inconsistent treatment of employees.
The company expanded rapidly into businesses and industries that leadership did not appear to fully understand operationally, which created instability and constant restructuring at the site level. There was also an excessive focus on meetings, systems, and corporate processes instead of supporting on-site teams and day-to-day operations.
One of the most concerning experiences was reporting serious workplace issues, including inappropriate behavior involving management and staff, only to see concerns minimized instead of properly addressed. Bullying and unprofessional management behavior were often excused rather than corrected.
The on-site employees worked extremely hard and genuinely cared about the guests and properties, but morale suffered because of leadership decisions and turnover. I would strongly encourage anyone considering employment to carefully research the company culture and management structure before accepting a position.

I would recommend approaching this company with caution.

Management structure was a significant challenge. Leadership was spread across multiple roles and teams, which made it difficult for them to stay engaged with any one team. As a result, multiple teams were often combined, leading to confusion, lack of direction, and frequent, unnecessary meetings. The workplace culture could be difficult, with a noticeable lack of trust among team members.  

There was also a noticeable emphasis on religious involvement in company activities. While participation was not explicitly required, those who chose not to engage could feel excluded or viewed differently. 

While there is a stated hybrid work policy (such as working from home on Fridays), in practice it is applied inconsistently. Flexibility largely depends on individual managers, with some teams allowed more remote work while others are not, creating an uneven and frustrating experience.

The company also places a strong emphasis on quarterly goal-setting initiatives (“ROCKS”), which in practice often felt like busy work rather than meaningful contributions to day-to-day operations.

Overall, those looking for clear expectations, strong leadership, and a supportive team environment may want to consider other opportunities

What is the best part of working at the company?
Getting to know the residents, making a connection for a lasting relationship.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
What you are told and what you are shown is very misleading.  Going behind your back , and smiling in your face.  Making you feel one way and acting another.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Stressful, due to when you ask a what you expect from this company, and express the experience you bring, they make you feel important. Then turn around and stab you in the back, after you bring there property up and on point, making sure your staff is educated and well presented.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
First thing in the morning they have zoom meetings, and there may be important factor you need to attend on the property, however you are not to miss the meetings.  This cause stress and back up on your property.  Instead you should be able to get the staff going with that day activities, and then consider you meetings.  Manitory for all staff including maintenance.

1) Terrible Benefits - Tuition reimbursement? It's like $200 a year. Good luck going back to school on that. Health Care? If you have kids, have fun most likely spending over a thousand dollars per month.

2) No room for growth. The entire company is built on nepotism and politics. If you aren't in the "inner circle" you are going nowhere.

3) Low pay. DLP pays well below average, and getting a raise is next to impossible. If you get a promotion, they won't even give you a raise. They give you a 6 month probation period with all of the added responsibilities, then MAYBE they will give you a 2-4% raise, if you are lucky.

4) Bizarre Cult-like culture. Imagine gathering in a circle and telling everyone your religious beliefs and about your personal life.

5) Miserable workplace. Nearly everyone HATES their job, hates the company, hates management. Nearly everyone is underpaid and overworked, leading to an absolutely miserable atmosphere. Leaving this job and starting a new one truly showed me how toxic and horrific DLP actually was.

If you are looking to be a part of something special, DLP is an amazing place to work.
The company truly lives its purpose, mission & core values to make a positive impact - in the lives of the team members, clients & the communities they serve.
The clear vision of the future is shared with the whole team, so everyone knows how they are a part of it.
It's certainly a fast paced culture with an amazing amount of consistent growth, so there's plenty of opportunity.
I've never seen a company care so much about it's team members by having days dedicated to living fully in all aspects of life.


Working for DLP Realty has been the best experience of my real estate career. I gained so much at this co. that to this point I refuse to work for any other company in the real estate arena. The impact was not only seen in my life but in the life of my family. I have been out of the company for a little while and my kids still mentioned how much they enjoyed the experiences that DLP provided to them.
I have been able to apply many concepts to other areas of my life that has been to great benefit to not only myself but others I share with.
I really enjoyed the leadership meetings, the great co workers and the exceptional Human Resources staff.
The hardest part of my job was letting go of such a great company.

DLP is an extremely supportive company that looks at its employees as individuals and not just dollar signs. Leaders take time to get to know the people that work here, and I genuinely feel like they care about my well being. I have had some harsh life experiences such as deaths in the family and have never felt so supported by a team as this one. They check up, they ask about our mental health, they give us tools to do better for ourselves. Also, I feel like the work we do here is valuable and the charity we do is the cherry on top. This is not the place for you if you want to clock in and out, this is where you wanna be if you want to be engaged in making goals happen. 

My experience with DLP was disappointing, particularly in leadership, operations, and overall support for employees. Despite my extensive background in property management and new construction lease-ups, I often found myself dealing with avoidable inefficiencies, unclear expectations, and a lack of accountability at various levels. Employee well-being and operational effectiveness seemed to take a backseat to poor decision-making and disorganization. Unfortunately, these factors made it difficult to perform at a high level or feel valued as a professional. I would not recommend this company to those seeking a structured, supportive, or well-managed work environment.


DLP Capital is a rapidly growing company, full of new challenges and adjustments to accommodate that growth. The company is very dynamic, and there is never a dull moment. This is an excellent place for those who want to learn a tremendous amount about the industry, work with the best in the business, and have the ability to grow through adversity. The best part of working at DLP is being provided the opportunity to contribute to the company's evolution.
