Pros

Good base compensation for sales, with a good commission structure. Some great people there. You can learn a lot about process from some professionals, and there’s some good ideas for the future of the tech.

Cons

There’s clear and obvious bullying that happens at Diligent that seems to tolerated by senior management, and sometimes perpetrated by. Micromanagement is the norm, to the point of harassment at times to be honest. The sentiment is growth at all costs, regardless of how that’s achieved. So, so much revenue is left on the table because of end of quarter panic, slashing prices to meet management targets and sacrificing seller commission in the process - how do you think that makes them feel?
