Pros

Great people and awesome new products

Cons

CEO, Board and C-level management are coming up with products and features from the top of their heads. Yes, Diligent is another company implementing AI in their products because the board said so, not because there is an actual need for it. The CEO have a grand vision of creating a single platform for all of their applications (Boards, Audit, etc), without the actual market need for it. But at least it takes 70% of the engineering resources and going to take years.

Pros

Some of the people are passionate, kind, hard workers

Cons

Very toxic leadership, especially in HR. they label themselves as a “high performing culture” which to them means working 70 hour weeks with no true productivity. Constantly pointing the finger and blaming instead of asking questions and understanding the why. HR leadership doesn’t care about people in any capacity and simply does not have the emotional intelligence to run a team of this size at a global org. Nobody is rewarded for hard work until it’s too late and they want to retain you. Constantly penny pinching and cutting down titles and comp. You get what you pay for. The answer to everything seems to be replacing people with AI but the AI doesn’t exist.
