Pros

There are no pros to working at DiversyFund. Do not be fooled by what you are told in an interview with the CEO, Craig Cecilio.

Cons

There are so many cons to working at DiversyFund. DiversyFund is quickly crumbling because of the lack of training and transparency from Craig. Craig is unable and willing to train his employees because he does not have the resources or knowledge to do so. Craig has not created an office environment that is positive. A total boys club of the blind leading the blind. Employees quit left and right which left no faith in the new people. Don't walk, run away from this place.

Pros

You know what not to do

Cons

It difficult for me to put my entire experience into words. So I’ll keep it short. There is nothing new with this company. Reviews dating back 6 years talking about the horrible work culture, toxicity, issues within the business… and Craig is at the center of it. It’s easy for him to shallowly take accountability saying everything falls on him because he’s the CEO and he takes responsibility. But there’s fake accountability and real accountability. He has destroyed every team that has come through those doors and has rubbed every employee the wrong way treating them with disrespect. There’s no other way to put it other than he’s a flat out narcissist. And it’s honestly sad. The company has so much potential and the team when I was there was great as I’m sure past people were as well. But at the end of the day you reap what you sow. And over 8 years and hundreds of employees that has walked through the doors and he still hasn’t learned how to treat people. Along with his self destructive behaviors. If you work there, you’ll be able to tell his true colors in the first month. He never will and his business will go no where because of it. What a shame. If there was an option to put zero stars I would.

DiversyFund Response

Thank you for taking the time to write this. We'll keep our response measured and direct. The position was a relationship and qualification role — staying close to existing investors, helping them understand the market, and identifying those positioned to reinvest before handing that forward. Investment transactions themselves are executed only by the firm's senior members, that structure is deliberate. The qualification work is a genuinely difficult skill with a steep learning curve, and the standard for it is high. Not everyone grows into it. DiversyFund operates lean, and when a role isn't working the firm makes that decision quickly. That is hard on the people affected, and we don't treat it lightly. We also take criticism of our leadership and culture seriously — including the criticism here. We won't relitigate any individual's experience in a public forum, out of respect for the people involved. The firm would rather be judged by how it operates over time than by how it argues in a comment. We wish you well.
