Pros

Great people and awesome new products

Cons

CEO, Board and C-level management are coming up with products and features from the top of their heads. Yes, Diligent is another company implementing AI in their products because the board said so, not because there is an actual need for it. The CEO have a grand vision of creating a single platform for all of their applications (Boards, Audit, etc), without the actual market need for it. But at least it takes 70% of the engineering resources and going to take years.

Pros

Depend on the site location some social activities. Good health insurance and pension. People doing the leg work in majority are great. Good opportunity for a short term role to learn about GRC.

Cons

For a GRC/ESG company. They forgot the G and S. Starting with salary. Huge discrepancies of salaries depending when the new person started. Someone that started this year is getting at least 10k less than a person doing the same job hired the year before. And this is the same across ALL regions. So much for equity and transparency! If you still work there I suggest asking your colleagues about salaries. Middle management is a joke. Some people in director level just have the role because that was favouritism and not for competence. Zero people skills, zero interest in learning the work their team does. Teams morale are going to the ground every passing day. Sales over promising a product that is not ready. Lacking the technical knowledge to engage with clients. Poor CSMs hired at peanuts wages, and expected to handle EVERYTHING ! This is a sinking ship! No career progression unless you become a managers favorite. Raises and bonuses are laughable.
