Vantaggi

Diligent generally offers a welcoming and laid-back company culture. This is notable considering the space in which the company operates and the caliber of clients that we service. There are many opportunities to advance and enter commercial roles in the mid-market and enterprise spaces, which will position you for a successful career at Diligent or elsewhere. Initiative is often rewarded; there are always more responsibilities that you can take on, and from my experience, your extra efforts don't go unnoticed. Members of executive management don't seem especially personable or passionate. However, they exhibit a methodical understanding of the company's trajectory and emerging issues we might face. I don't think it's by sheer luck that Diligent has been able to avoid layoffs thus far in an adverse economic climate (knock on wood). That being said, it's not lost on me that at the beginning of 2021 we did lay off a substantial percentage of our team...

Svantaggi

Disorganization. Over the last few years, we have acquired several companies in the GRC space. Compounding that with a massive restructuring in 2021 and a ton of new hires, Diligent can be a very confusing company to work for. What I mean by that is that processes shift on a weekly, if not daily basis, and changes are often not well communicated to dependent teams. Some of our products are very complex and difficult to service, and in some cases, the people who knew best how to service those products have either been offboarded or quit over the last ~2 years. One of the big reasons of the reorg was to centralize our commercial org so that we had one central Sales and CS team, but then in 2021 we acquired several other companies which brought us back to square one in terms of operational centralization. Therefore, be prepared to be bounced around internally to get things done and answer questions that should be easy. Just try not to pull your hair out, and if you're working in a client facing role, be prepared to deal with some frustrated clients.

Vantaggi

Decent pay, unlimited PTO and good benefits

Svantaggi

Leadership will tell you want you want to hear to keep you focused on being a BDR instead of helping you get promoted. Majority of AE type roles are not posted internally and do a ton of external hiring instead of promotions.
