Pros

The company offers great pay for the Charlotte area. It also offers a great opportunity to work with and learn new technologies.

Cons

Manager doesn't foster team atmosphere. Manager has his favorite workers who are running things but may not have the best ideas. The business lack the ability to decide what need to be done with the product under development. Manager wants the development team to makeup for the lack of decision making by the business by working long hours.

Pros

I have nothing positive to say

Cons

This is the most dysfunctional, toxic, political company I have ever witnessed. No one would let their friends or family come work here. Some teams may be unaware of what is happening behind the scenes but for most in leadership they just watch the unhealthy disturbing culture go by as it stems from the top and no one wants the retaliation. Most of the good leaders have left - or those with experience in their roles.

Pros

While you are there and in their plan they will shower you with fake love and care, while they need you.

Cons

The moment leadership makes mistakes or decides you are not cult worthy, they put you on official or unofficial pips and give you no support or chance for success. HR only cares about the company and not the employees. Though this did not impact me personally, I did have to go through this with 2 colleagues over the years and sworn to silence. I had to sit back and watch Diligent abuse and mistreat people because had I said anything to HR. I would have been next. If you need a filler job to get you to the next one, Pick Diligent, just don't get comfortable and don't unpack. Just do your 8, get your money and look for another job. No pay and perks are worth the end result. Scary to think of how many people this happens to because in the end, they make you sign away your rights to get a small little check.
