Pros

The people and the working environment. Diligent is a global and diverse company that is inclusive and very supportive of its employees. There is a strong focus on employee experience. Folks here are passionate about what they do and company mission resonates well. Great opportunities to learn about the Governance, Risk and Compliance space.

Cons

Compensation can be improved for sure to match market rate. Fast-growth and multiple acquisitions can mean a rapidly shifting landscape with lots of moving pieces.

Pros

Benefits are great, as they really care about their employees. Vacation time and extra recharge weeks, plus work from home flexibility provide wonderful work like balance. The company encourages growth and fosters lots of opportunities for movement, recognition, and rewards those that do well in their roles. Company culture is great, even with offices around the globe I still feel apart of the bigger picture.

Cons

As with a lot of larger companies, sometimes there is a lot of red tape to get things done. Too many departments to go through to get an answer. Turnover can be challenging as there are always new people getting trained in departments, which can slow down progress.
