Pros

I have been working in and writing about IT security for a very long time and the PKI has been a focus of mine. From that standpoint there's no better place to be than a very large CA that is also provider of PKI and related security services. This is a really important tech that everyone uses a lot every day. Very few know about it, because it generally just works correctly, and that's because companies like DigiCert are really serious about this business.

Cons

I work remotely (welcome to 2024). I like the people I work with, but I work with only a few and it's all Slack and email. I feel like I'm part of the team, but there are limits when you're never going to meet people face to face. I hope to some day. Also, all they could swing for me now is an hourly part-time position, but they're keeping me busy and I'm hoping something full-time opens up. This will affect my ratings below.

Dear current DigiCert employee, Thank you for the Glassdoor review. We appreciate that you note a five-star experience with a business outlook, leadership and culture you endorse. It’s also great to see that you value what we do and how you contribute to IT security. We understand the cons – fully remote work is not always ideal for some people. We do have those who live near offices come in twice a week. But we also offer an employee resource group for remote employees to help build community and culture. If there is anything else you’d like to share, don’t hesitate to reach out to the DigiCert People Team. Regards, DigiCert People Team

Pros

- Fabulous executive team with a wealth of diversity of thought - Structured goals, high expectations - Colleagues who consistently raise the bar to create a high-performance culture

Cons

Move fast and break things! The environment is competitive and demands only the best from every team member. Not a con, but be prepared to give it your all at DigiCert.

Pros

I have loved my team and manager since day 1. I stay because DigiCert continues to provide me with professional development opportunities. I began as a file clerk and now manage a team doing complex operational efficiency work. They supported me through an MBA and each year I take at least one course and attend at least one industry event to help expand my skill and reach. The pay is average, BUT when you add in the value of the above-average benefits, the total remuneration package is great.

Cons

DigiCert is owned by Private Equity. If you have not worked for a PE portfolio company before, it means they focus solely on making money and stripping out what they deem as fluff (which I deem as retention levers, like company parties and swag).
