Pros

Fun and international team to work with, very fast growing offering lots of opportunities, great clients to serve. Real career changer if you are hard working and want more from your day spent at work.

Cons

I've worked at Diligent for 7 years now and have taken all the challenges as opportunities to grow. There are no perfect companies to work for but I cannot fault Diligent for giving me a great career growth and 7 years of a stable job.

Pros

Nice location. (Some) lovely colleagues

Cons

You really need to know how to play the field here, there’s a serious political hierarchy and if you’re not friends with the right people (Ie take part in their highly booze infused events out) you’re pretty much invisible no matter how hard you work. Everyone is fake friendly to your face, and a lot of people don’t actually like each other! There are some serious allegations going on to which senior management is completely turning a blind eye. There are clear “favourites” and management openly admits this. If you don’t mind working until the late late hours of the night, you’ll find your place here. Incompetent management with no people skills and no ability to give constructive feedback or the support you need in order to grow personally. I am completely shocked at the way they treat employees. False promises are a daily conversation! And don’t bother talking to HR as all they’re good at is finding excuses for the behaviour of the management.

Pros

Diligent is uniquely positioned as the industry-leader while experiencing exceptional growth, driven by a strategic vision to change the industry landscape, and as a result its employees and clients feel they're part of something special. Diligent's management team has hired the best people in leadership to support and develop talent, allowing employees to work independently while being supported as needed. As a result, our internal cultural celebrates each others' successes while providing merit-based recognition. Diligent is also extremely fair with compensation, time-off, and benefits, with a senior leadership team who is down to earth and easily approachable. At this point in my career I've worked for four different software companies, and Diligent is the only one I've felt I want to stay with for the long-term. Work is no longer just "work", but instead something I feel excited about in my day to day.

Cons

Through multiple acquisitions and fast-growth there are growing pains, which is expected. System integration and consolidation of internal platforms has been a challenge, but expected.
