Pros

The good friends I made who stood by me in tough times.

Cons

The terrible leads we worked with who never respected and treated us like machines. One even called a colleague a buffalo. No flexibility even when we went through some personal loss. Now I hear they are teeming up with their Brand Manager friend and doing random events, forcing good reviews sending surveys where the rating starts at good and goes to outstanding to show management they are doing great things at the site. But actually everyone is looking for a job to get out. There is no growth, respect or work life balance here.

Pros

Some nice colleagues who are your therapy.

Cons

The irony is that Diligent has a product callwd Vault which is an AI-powered ethics and compliance solution that empowers organizations to foster a speak-up culture, mitigate misconduct risks, and strengthen compliance. The real need for this product is within Diligent where there is a culture of harassment by HR senior leadership, unfair promotion practices and where whistle-blower or ones who question it as laid off or PIPed. Please research the organization you join and join a good company. Don't join here.

Pros

I have nothing positive to say

Cons

This is the most dysfunctional, toxic, political company I have ever witnessed. No one would let their friends or family come work here. Some teams may be unaware of what is happening behind the scenes but for most in leadership they just watch the unhealthy disturbing culture go by as it stems from the top and no one wants the retaliation. Most of the good leaders have left - or those with experience in their roles.
