Diode-Dynamics

What is the best part of working at the company?
Youthful, energized staff that are eager to jump up and tackle the hard issues.  Owner paid for a nice lunch for the staff one a month.  Building is brand new and clean. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
I did not like working at Diode Dynamics due to micromanagement by the owner.  He is too involved in all decisions, no matter how small, that the stress he puts himself under causes him to blow up like a child - often.  At times, he was unreasonable, unprofessional, and demeaning.  While his intentions are probably good, he is chasing off the leadership people he needs to runs this company long term.  Right now, he is building an army of "YES Men". 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
The warehouse is a party! They have a great thing going in the warehouse in regards to a fun working environment.  The office is very uptight, quiet and stressful. 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Numerous closed door meetings, a lot of updating excel reports that no one really uses, repetitive "fixing" of problems that do not have solutions.  The daily office water-cooler talk is usually the perceived mood of the Owner that day and who he has publicly berated most recently.

From the start of the interview is a lie they tell you how great of a place they are and there a new and growing company. But what they sont tell you is that you have to take a MANDATORY CLASS that the owner teaches you witch by the way he knows very little about LED just look WIKI up and there's all your answers is his theory. And if you fail this class you get suspended or terminated. Second you sont get a raise on how long you have been with the company only what your value is to the company. So you put all this time and effort in this job and he wont even give you a good reference for taking a 5 month long class that you dont find out your taking till a week before. They hired a person with a work Visa and forgot the send in his info that is required to stay in the country then told him they cant have him work here because they are not verified to hire people with work visas. STAY AWAY. I would say the only good thing is free lunches.

Diode Dynamics is a unique company to work for, and I am grateful given the chance to be employed here. Like most companies there is that push from management to always strive for higher, and be the best which can be tough under some circumstances, but the management here stops, drops, and assist to help whoever and whatever department is needed. Having the support from them makes a huge impact on the morale, and builds a stronger bond within the whole team. This company is one of the only companies I know that is acceptable to change, and will be open to any ideas no matter where it comes from. Honestly, from the awesome work life balance it provides to the uplifting and encouraged team work this company can amount to anything! 

My journey at Diode Dynamics has been incredibly rewarding, both professionally and personally. I started in customer service, learning the business from the ground up, and through hard work, mentorship, and opportunity, I’ve grown into my current role as Sales Director.

What makes Diode Dynamics truly special is the culture. Our CEO consistently motivates employees to push themselves, grow their skill sets, and take on new challenges. Opportunities aren’t just talked about, they’re created and supported.

There’s a strong sense that we’re all moving forward together. Success here isn’t individual, it’s shared across the team. I’m grateful to be part of a company that invests in its people and believes in building careers, not just filling roles.

As a Sales and Service Representative, we are tasked with answering phone calls and emails. Most of it is troubleshooting product issues with customers, and the rest of it is transferring calls to other departments and shooting down telemarketers. We also assist customers who come in to the store. We get to work at 8:30 AM and leave at 5:00 PM, M-F. We have a 30-40 min meeting on Monday mornings, with the whole company, and a 20-30 min meeting with Sales and Marketing on Friday mornings. We get a 30 min lunch between 12PM-2PM. The hardest part of the job is dealing with upset customers and the best part of the job is working with awesome, like-minded individuals!

Diode Dynamics is still considered a small business, but has sat large goals and shown much improvement recently. For a smaller company they treat their employees really well. The health insurance is good, they provide production staff vacation time, paid holidays, free lunch once a month, and does plenty of nice things for their employees! The management accepts and encourages feedback which is nice, but overall the coworkers/employees are awesome. There are definitely a lot of perks to working here. The work is steady so you will not be bored, and they also switch up areas that you work in so you won't be burnt out!

Work at DD has many facets. We develop new products to try to one-up our competitors, we optimize old products to improve our customers' experience, and we plan for the future as the company grows beyond all our expectations. Compensation is good in the engineering department, with insurance benefits and a retirement plan. Job security is a 4/5 simply because we're a newer company without decades of experience navigating the market. Good culture of good people.

Work days are usually fairly busy with interesting things to do. New products are being developed constantly and input is valued from any position to help create a cool, functional, and durable product. Management can be a little bit of a distraction at times with the amount of different projects, but everyone is professional and most are passionate about what they do. Processes continue to improve, but that being said, there is definitely room for improvement.

Diode Dynamics is a wonderful company that not only focuses on its customers but its employees. They value employee happiness and really invest in their emplyess growth both personally and professionally. An amazing work environment where you feel like family. Managers really take the time to make sure you are learning and understanding every aspect of your job. I have learned so much here and have gained so much knowledge and expirience. Hands down an outstanding company.

Diode Dynamics is a great place to work whether you are someone that is experienced in manufacturing or not. The training provided will make your transition into your role quick and painless. There are ample opportunities for advancement and a variety of skills you can learn. The benefits are good and the free lunch once a month is a nice little perk they do to show their appreciation. Would definitely recommend working here!
