Pros

I guess the name of the company still carries some weight for now and can help others out with future endeavors.

Cons

Lack of any ethical oversight, shady business dealings, greedy management and ownership unwilling to pay fairly or give fair raises even after multiple internal reviews. Maybe the broader public should ask companies like DigiCert and entities like the CA/B forum why there are absolutely zero whistleblower protections in an industry built on the concept of protecting the publics privacy through the trust of CA's.

Dear Former Employee, Thank you for taking the time to give this feedback. We have an expectation that every member of our company acts with integrity in all that we do. We understand that sometimes people don’t agree on decisions or outcomes, but we always want our people and our leaders to act with good intent when making those business decisions. We would appreciate it if you could share additional details via our SpeakUp program so that we can investigate these issues. Our SpeakUp program is available to all employees (both current and former) to provide suggestions on how we could be better but also a safe space to raise concerns on business practices or ethical behaviors. You can raise a case by clicking here https://app.integritycounts.ca/org/digicert, and you have the option to report anonymously if that is what you wish. Thank you for your feedback and best wishes in your next role.

Pros

DigiCert has an amazing culture with a ton of great people who are always willing to collaborate and band together to achieve a common goal. I feel I have the tools, support, autonomy, and resources to succeed in my role and make a positive business impact.

Cons

There is definitely areas of opportunity when it comes to building for scale and breaking down operational silos as DigiCert continues to grow as an organization.

Pros

I have loved my team and manager since day 1. I stay because DigiCert continues to provide me with professional development opportunities. I began as a file clerk and now manage a team doing complex operational efficiency work. They supported me through an MBA and each year I take at least one course and attend at least one industry event to help expand my skill and reach. The pay is average, BUT when you add in the value of the above-average benefits, the total remuneration package is great.

Cons

DigiCert is owned by Private Equity. If you have not worked for a PE portfolio company before, it means they focus solely on making money and stripping out what they deem as fluff (which I deem as retention levers, like company parties and swag).
