Pros

Remote work and some other perks that are going away.

Cons

We went from competent foreign staff to off shoring even more staff in the last year, with a huge quality decline in foreign employees. Managers and management got very shady. Forced resignations, layoffs that didn't adhere to legal and social norms, and some other bad stuff. The ethics training courses were a bit tongue in cheek starting in 2022. This was a sign of the new direction. Old CEO was seemingly ok, new guy definitely not.

Pros

One star for the amazing people, one star for paycheck.

Cons

When I left, it took at least a month to decompress from the toxicity. KGM reorgs were a regular occurrence (5 in a 2-year span, for example) resulting in colleagues reappearing in roles in which they have no experience or disappearing all together. This created a culture of constant backstabbing and insecurity. Leadership picked favorites, ignoring the talents of many and this was reflective in bonuses. They undervalue and lose a lot of talented people, and it continues in spite of their recent positive quarterly reports. Reactionary marketing strategies result in a lot of wasted time and work. Read the rest of the reviews before taking on a role here. You will see a pattern.
