Pros

Diligent has great people and nice inclusive culture and offers awesome perks like the Recharge weeks this year. You can earn a nice amount as well. The Budapest office is pretty beautiful, but you can chose to work from home all week if that is your thing. You'll feel that as a person you are being valued.

Cons

The tech stack couldn't be more diverse and often times outdated. Sometimes the buzzwords echo louder than real conversations. It's a place where you probably won't get bored, but might get frustrated by your daily tasks and the obstacles that you can hit tech or process wise. Changes come often, you can sometimes feel that you are not even get your foot on the ground yet and someone is already trying to pull the rug from under it, but that also depends on which team you end up first.

Thank you for your review. It’s great to hear that you’re enjoying the inclusive culture and ever-growing list of benefits including our twice annual Recharge Weeks, a time where non-essential work pauses so employees to truly unplug and recharge. We are also very glad to hear that you are enjoying our gorgeous new Budapest office and, most importantly, that you feel valued as a person. With regards to your other feedback, we would love to hear your ideas on how we can improve and better support you. I hope you will consider speaking with your manager, ELT member, or a member of the HR team – whoever you feel most comfortable talking to – so that we can better support you. Thanks again! - Avigail Dadone, Chief People Officer

Pros

Good work life balance and manageable workload

Cons

Where to begin? Company completely lost its soul. When I joined, there was a sense of comradery and team. After some senior leadership exits and the reorg - all that is gone forever. People care very little about their jobs now, and the only goal is to sell sell sell. Hitting unsustainable targets 80% of the company are new hires within the past year, they have no idea what is going on or the history of the products. Clients are definitely taking notice and sending cancellation notices. Def sinking ship, but senior leadership does not care. They do not even talk about cancellation % anymore, which was never before seen when I joined. They only pretend to care about ESG and DEII 'woke' movements. Get out when you have a chance before it is too late.

Thank you for sharing your perspective. We’re glad to hear your appreciation for our commitment to promoting a sustainable work-life balance but are sorry to hear your other feedback and that it sounds like there is more we could have done to support you.

The changes we have been making have been in direct response to feedback from both clients and teammates on how we can serve and support them even better. As we have continued to grow and scale our team, we have been investing in extensive onboarding, training and enablement to ensure our employees are fully knowledgeable about our expanded solution set as we grow our leadership position in the GRC space. At all levels of our organization, we make every effort to ensure all our employees are equipped to effectively fulfil their responsibilities to our clients and strive to create a supportive culture within our teams. We appreciate you taking the time to share with us your candid thoughts and hope you shared your feedback with the team while you were here – wishing you the best of luck with your next step. - Avigail Dadone, Chief People Officer
