Pros

Learned a ton in my position, fun team, great events throughout the year.

Cons

Work-life balance was non-existent, with no flexibility for working from home. They opted for outsourcing rather than hiring locally. The pay was inadequate considering the job title and Northern VA location. Opportunities for growth were scarce.

We understand the importance of work-life balance and flexibility. While the Company offers telecommuting and flexible work schedules for many of our employees, the nature of some positions may limit the option to work from home.

In addition to compensation, JK offers a comprehensive benefits package including medical/dental/vision insurance, Company-paid 401k contributions, Profit Sharing, tuition reimbursement, company paid training opportunities, and discounted fitness memberships.

Pros

Great coworkers with healthy internal relationships

Cons

Being a move coordinator means you’re the main contact for your moves and are expected to be available at the drop of a hat even outside of work hours. Taking time off or even your one hour lunch break every day is not encouraged or monitored. There is very rarely time for a break or an opportunity for assistance. Being good at your job means more is expected of you and dumped on you. Your work will never be enough. JK makes it very clear that you are an employee, not a friend. If you are not working up to par, there is no hesitation in letting you go. You are trained to know exactly how replaceable you are. Asking for help rarely feels like an option and you are treated like an all performing robot. Not only are you expected to go above and beyond but you are paid to reflect the bare minimum. JK is very VERY reserved with pay. You will not be paid your worth and good luck asking for more.

Maintaining a healthy work-life balance and ensuring our employees are treated with Care and Respect are top priorities. At JK, taking breaks and utilizing allocated lunch hours are encouraged and respected. We understand the challenges of being in a role where demands can be high, especially during peak season. It’s important to us that all team members feel empowered to ask for assistance when needed and to communicate openly about workload concerns. JK has teams working in multiple time zones to ensure customers can always reach someone and technology to support a global workforce. Additionally, we run a summer internship program to provide added support during peak season. We are committed to a culture where teamwork and mutual support are valued. We value your input and would appreciate the opportunity to discuss your concerns further. Please feel free to reach out to the HR team if you would like to have a confidential conversation about your experience or if you have additional feedback to share.
