Pros
Evident by the low turnover rate, DMS' company culture is appealing in many ways. Everyone is welcoming, diligent, hard-working, and kind. Aside from the outstanding team, the company represents a benevolent force in the music industry, geared toward giving power back to the artists. Not to mention, the company's client roster is quite impressive.Cons
Because the work is 90% remote, improving one's value as a new hire is mostly up to them. Of course, the team is more than willing to help where help is needed, but quick accessibility to assistance is slightly lacking.Our business is based on empowering the creators who shape culture around the world, from the most popular musicians to those self-managing their career. We champion initiatives, technology and systems that support creators and their partners.
We are active in leading music industry trade organizations and working groups in technology to bring our voice and vision to the table in service of building a more equitable global music ecosystem. Our executives sit on the boards of various music industry trade groups and non-profit organizations around the world, including: National Music Publishers’ Association, the Music Publishers Association, Merlin, and the Digital Data Exchange, among others. These organizations exist to safeguard and promote the interests of music publishers, labels and the clients they represent, to various governments and regulatory bodies, the music industry, the media and the public at large.
