Pros

Team culture, communication. My team had worked in Digicert for more than 2y. We got a notice about firing in 1 month. They had decide to fire out a team of experienced engineers and replace with cheaper team from South Africa that writes low-quality code. My team members (developers, Product owner, PMs, Q&A) were awesome people with whom I worked closely.

Cons

Fired for unknown reason, I guess they want only to pay less salaries rather than keep top quality engineers. The sad is the company top-management which only counts where to hire cheaper people even at the cost of quality

Dear former DigiCert employee, The DigiCert People Team is always to listen and support current and former employees. We note your review and concerns, and we would like to address what you have shared. When someone is terminated, the goal is to ensure that we are transparent about why we end a relationship with an employee. Our commitment is, when we have to terminate a relationship with an employee, we aspire to be as transparent as possible and treat people with dignity and respect as we understand how difficult the situation may be. While we are actively adding roles in South Africa and India, those roles are expansions of existing teams with a focus on ensuring teams are co-located to drive a culture of exceptional collaboration and relentless execution.

Pros

Good benefits, interesting technology, a few good people

Cons

Ethics are basically non-existent, many people are fired over a 5 minute zoom with zero warning or history or poor performance. Constant turnover at the executive level. Transformation in 2023 was a complete disaster, VERY few sales reps made their number and direction from leadership was constantly changing. Commission payouts were super sketchy with territories always changing. The product teams announce releases that are not fully baked. Many deals lost in late stages due to previously unknown technical gaps in the product. Compensation is on the lower end. Dozens of reps are hired and then fired within months which is in indication of poor hiring practices. Decisions are made based on the bottom line and zero consideration for the employees and their families is afforded.

Dear former DigiCert employee, Thank you for taking the time and providing a review on Glassdoor. While we appreciate the recognition of the benefits, technology, and people at DigiCert, we recognize your list of negatives was extensive. In 2023 DigiCert went through a transformation year, and change is often hard and uncomfortable. But DigiCert, its leaders and employees are quickly finding our footing in this new structure. Major changes include making choices about people, which is always difficult, but we do our best to be thoughtful and not make emotional decisions. And we will always be honest with people on why decisions are made. We hope that, overall, your experience at DigiCert was positive, and we invite you to share any additional feedback you may have with a member of the DigiCert People Team. We would be more than happy to speak with you. Regards, DigiCert People Team
