      Once great, now mediocre at best, almost terrible.

      Pros

      There are some good people to work with. It used to have really strong benefits, top salaries, work from home allowence, two weeks paid vacation called recharge weeks, positive vibes. There are some great initiatives to make a stronger community based on hobbies. I used to recommend this place to my friends. Now i highly discourage them from that.

      Cons

      They take away everything what was good before. - almost each and every collague is depressed and have negative vibes. - no more recharge weeks. It might be that we will get one, if some random profit numbers will be met… - 50% office presence is mandatory - except if you get an exception based on totally random factors, which will be valid for 1 years… - the year on year salary increases are a joke - they would be a joke even in normal circumstances, but in these inflationary times… my salarys real value worth almost 50% less when i come here. Even if you get promoted you will only get half of the official inflations rate. Now they even want you to commute to the office, so in reality this year they cut your salary (especially if you count in commuting hours) But i guess forcing commute is great for ESG, it has to be, cause that bs facade is really pushed within the company.

      We appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback with us. We'd certainly agree that we have dedicated, helpful and smart people on our team, and it’s great to hear that you found a good community here. However, we're sorry to hear your broader experience, as it is not reflective of our commitment to creating a vibrant, supportive work environment for every colleague. We continue to work hard to provide competitive benefits and compensation for our team members, as we strike a continual balance between delivering best-in-class service for our clients and supporting a healthy work-life balance for everyone on our team through our generous time off program, an annual recharge week, bi-yearly promotional cycles and dedicated Employee Resource Groups (ERGs). To your comments on pay progression, we recognize that offering clear, actionable career development opportunities is critical in promoting a healthy workplace culture. Along with our internal goal-setting program, we’ve also recently launched new efforts like Career Talk webinars so employees can share how they’ve progressed on their journey at Diligent. If you have ideas about how we can improve in these areas, I’d encourage you to reach out to your manager or any ELT member. We value your honest feedback and will certainly take it onboard as an opportunity to improve. Thank you for your contributions at Diligent! - Avigail Dadone, Chief People Officer

      Pros

      - Nice-looking office in the city centre. - Used to be ahead of the competition with salary and benefits

      Cons

      All the benefits that made the company stand out from the competition are melting away by the day. The desire of growth is replaced by greed. As this progressess, management communication is becoming more and more one-sided to mute the dissatisfaction.

      Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We’re glad that you’re enjoying our beautiful Budapest office. However, we regret to hear that you don’t feel our benefits continue to be competitive, among other concerns. This certainly does not reflect our desire to prioritize rewarding our team members’ and supporting their wellbeing. As we continue to evolve as a company, we’re striving to strike the right balance between being customer-first, pursuing organizational growth and giving our colleagues the support they need for success. Some of the ways we’re working to improve transparency and accountability across the company include our organization-wide V2MOMS program for internal goals-setting, as well as monthly town halls and Q&A sessions. Additionally, we’re continuing to provide employee offerings including generous time off, an annual recharge week, bi-yearly promotional cycles and dedicated Employee Resource Groups (ERGs). We appreciate your honest feedback and will take this to heart as opportunity to improve. I’d also encourage you to share your concerns with your manager, HR or any ELT member if you’d feel comfortable. Thank you for being a valued member of our team! - Avigail Dadone, Chief People Officer

      Pros

      Solid corporate business strategy, well defined individual responsibilities. Outcome driven innovation process with consistent KPIs to measure progress and success. Strong people focus, not just communication but also actions. Central location of the office, with unlimited parking spots.

      Cons

      Continuous organizational changes frustrating employees, better and more transparent communication of upcoming and ongoing changes.
