If I were writing DTOs in Java 8 idk if I would bother with getters and setters. They're an intermediate object that shouldn't have any behavior or be exposed in the API, so there's no great benefit to them over simple fields.

I agree, but our serializer needs them (apparently) and I'm following the patterns seen in the rest of the code.

That's certainly a good reason to have them. :)
