Pros

Work life balance, decent compensation

Cons

Can no longer grow organically, so decides on acquiring as many companies as possible without properly integrating them. Product line is so fragmented that customers who only want the core product are forced to purchase unnecessary add-ons. This business is not sustainable, it shows when Finance decided to cut 50% of the company and relocate to a lower cost of living country. Support quality suffered as a result, lets see how product dev will be like in these new areas hmmm?? Good luck Galvanized and Steele! Half your positions will be eliminated within a year. Good reviews were all written by HR, do not believe it.

Thank you for your comments, and we’re sorry to hear your concerns. As a company, we’re proud of what we’ve accomplished together over the last 5+ years – achieving significant growth organically and by joining forces with other leading companies to enhance our modern governance offerings. As you referenced, we recently undertook a strategic transformation, designed to drive even greater impact for our clients, including through establishing new international offices in leading global tech hubs. However, it's important to clarity that this wasn’t about cutting costs – but actually about scaling up the vast majority of our functions to better support our customers, and investing in sustainable growth for the future. We don’t underestimate how hard these steps have been for impacted team members and our foremost priority has been doing everything we can to support them. At the same time, we are confident these were the right steps to set Diligent up for long-term success. We take your feedback onboard and want to thank you again for your honest thoughts. - Avigail Dadone, Chief People Officer
