Good but changing for the worse

Pros

Casual dress code Daniel as a truly visionary and caring individual Most team members are friendly & collaborative Collaborative culture where working-team level coworkers get along well and create a positive productivity environment

Cons

Zero upward feedback mechanisms New VP level leadership across multiple functions is changing the culture for the worse No support for existing employees with the org structure changes. more and more people being hired in above with no attention paid to impact on the existing team Compensation is well below market and annual increases are basically negligible, no one at the company has gotten anywhere near their target bonus for years If you have a bad manager, there are no avenues for you to do anything about it and no mechanisms for anyone else in the organization to know

We appreciate you sharing your perspective, and we’re glad that you’ve experienced our collaborative culture and positive, productive environment. You have shared several important points in your review and we would like to continue the conversation with you live. In case you don’t reach out, here are a few comments in response: • During our last town hall, leadership spoke about the importance of open and honest feedback and the resources and people available to all team members for feedback and suggestions. If there’s a continued issue with your manager and you are not feeling heard by your department head, please come to HR for a discussion. • We keep a pulse on compensation trends across the industry to continue to offer fair and competitive compensation programs. We consider equity in KIND and eligibility for a bonus for all full-time team members a unique part of our overall package. We hope you’ll reach out to share your feedback in person, so we can learn more about your perspective and work together for a more positive experience for you and our team. – KIND HR

Pros

This is the best company I have worked with in my career!! It has a great brand, great products and the best culture I have ever experienced! The people at KIND are smart, talented and care about the company. The senior management team is approachable and open to listening to your ideas. It is non stop every day at work but I enjoy the energy and pace and I find everyone willing to help out in busy times. I also like that everyone receives KIND stock when we join the company and because of our growth, the value of my stock has significantly increased! We also have a great benefits plan which includes a very generous 401K plan, Zeel massages and a lot of KIND bars! I also appreciate that our CEO, Daniel, is open and transparent about where we are as a company and how much opportunity we have ahead. There is a great culture at KIND and I hope we can maintain the culture as we continue to grow.

Cons

Because of our growth we have hired a lot of new team members in the past couple of years so we are running our of office space and meeting rooms. Our paid maternity policy is good but I feel it could be better.
