Pros

5% 401K match. Company is big enough to be around for a while.

Cons

Cheap and rigid about everything. KM makes their own horrid software programs so they can avoid paying for licensing. Make work more difficult making everything some excel based document like it’s 1997, wastes time. Company is ran too lean compared to alike companies, each role typically has many more responsibilities compared to others. You’re constantly firefighting, progress cannot be made. LTIP is a carrot on a string. Just another item they threaten to take away. Poor culture; they give you the “if you don’t like it, there’s the door” type statement if you can have criticism. WORTHLESS HR. I had an issue when I was getting picked on by my manager and tried to transfer to a different department. I was going to get an offer but was blocked based on a lie about my work performance. HR didn’t even care to look into my complaint. I put in my two weeks and HR didn’t even bother to provide an exit interview, or even call to ask why. Marches to managements orders and isn’t afraid to display it.

Pros

The pay was actually pretty good,

Cons

The management is terrible, and they’re selective when it comes to taking disciplinary action. Promotions are based on who you know, not on your skills or knowledge.
