Collaboration, hard working, good culture - Staff Industrial Designer Kaleidoscope Innovation Employee Review

Fun and diverse work environment. Great people.

job security in any consultancy can be a consideration

Management, project work, and company culture are hard to beat. They genuinely care about the people. There is a great sense of community as well in the organization, and Ben Ko, the CEO, is a phenomenal person. People here are the best of the best both personally and professionally.

Pay is lower than equivalent positions elsewhere, communication was lacking at times from management, and they definitely need work in the diversity side of things (engineering is mostly white males of various ages). There is unfortunately a high emphasis on billability in the organization, which causes a lot of pressure and has developed into part of the culture, therefore most people who work here are top of the top in terms of talent and tend to expect a lot, somewhat to the point of unreason. The parent company, Infosys, caused a lot of headaches when they bought Kaleidoscope a few years back, and problems continue to show up consistently. They apply unnecessary pressure to management and make things much harder than they have to be on a day to day. They tend to be very controlling and difficult to work with on a person to person basis. They interfere with the day to day job, otherwise I would not mention them.
