Pros

Hybrid work Cab facility Food

Cons

The management’s planning is often unrealistic, leading to constant pressure and frequent weekend work. The TPM team, in particular, is driven by internal politics rather than performance. Hard work and genuine contributions often go unnoticed, while visibility and quick responses to managers seem to earn more credit. Collaboration and support from management are minimal — the focus is more on assigning pressure than solving problems. If you value work-life balance and a supportive environment, it may be best to reconsider joining the TPM team at Diligent.

Nothing to speak about that is a Pro

The Leadership team here is like a bunch of sociopathic dyslexic kids playing hunger games. Total chaos. Nothing good here. Run.... before they get you

Pros

Talented peers who do their best despite poor direction Strong brand recognition and global reach Exposure to new tools and technology (though often poorly applied)

Cons

Arbitrary and constantly shifting priorities that create churn, not progress Leadership that does not understand the difference between technical writing and technical roles Alarming acceptance of mediocrity, including the belief that 90% quality output via AI is “good enough” Excessive process and meetings that replace real direction Content is created for optics rather than for customers.
