Pros

KLD has some very knowledgeable people on both the technical side and management. Great people! You can learn a lot at KLD and management works hard with you. There are some solid folks in SR management as well as some excellent mid level managers. You can learn a LOT working with some of the best tech folks in the business.

Cons

Some large acquired companies have not been entirely integrated leading to technical stumbling blocks and barriers between groups that can cause some real headaches. Very little work life balance. The collaborative environment I enjoyed pre-acquisition changed to a more top down, paranoid, CYA culture. There is a high risk of burnout, particularly among project and mid level managers. Pay is low for the level of expectations.

Pros

HR department was decent to deal with.

Cons

- Lack of focus on strategy, seemingly endless shifts in priorities week to week, month to month, year after year. Not congruent change, not progressive change, but chaotic disorienting change. - Upper management claims to have an absolute "No A-holes" policy, claims to want to encourage cooperation and growth. Then turns around and is fully complacent with obviously toxic behavior from people in positions of authority, especially technical authority. These toxic interactions gradually wore down people's desire to engage.
