Pros
Not much left but some good, smart people. Remote. Ability to learn.
Cons
Kantata is unfortunately not the company it used to be. Morale is extremely low and the culture has become one of fear and uncertainty. Despite leadership’s statements that layoffs had ended, there continue to be silent, unannounced cuts. No one feels safe, even as the company insists it “puts people first.” Talented, hardworking colleagues, the kind of people you want to build with, have been let go. It has left the rest constantly wondering if they’ll be next. What makes this worse is that the CEO remains in place, and every time he speaks, it feels disingenuous. He doesn’t come across as a leader you can trust or rally behind to bring the company back to what it once was. Frankly, I don’t see how it will ever return to that. I used to recommend Kantata enthusiastically to anyone. It was a great place to work and I was proud to be here. Today, my advice would be the opposite: run and look elsewhere. There are still some great people left but the environment is toxic, and everyone is just hoping for change that doesn’t seem to be coming.
