Pros

As IT we had more priviladges than others. But we needed more flexibility. Salary should be better. Great colleges.

Cons

The work done was not beeing vallued by ghe managers as a quality but as a quantity. That motivates employees to write bad code.

Pros

Benefits are extremely good. If you need good health insurance and a really nice retirement plan, it's a good place for that. Pay is somewhat poor otherwise. High focus on bonuses, even for positions that aren't a good fit for bonuses.

Cons

QA is extremely undermanned, don't expect any help unless you're on the pet projects. Communication is a serious problem within software development and the company in general. The new CIO/Tech Director is taking steps to make this better, but it was still a nightmare when I left. Prepare to get blindsided, a lot. If you hear a date, there's a better than even chance that it's incorrect. Company policies are a mess, expect to hear at least four different explanations for one requirement while employed with KPA. For a company that provides HR software, they are quite terrible at HR.

KPA Response

Thank you very much for giving us feedback on our benefits and retirement plan. We appreciate all the feedback you have given KPA. We apologize for the way you felt towards the internal HR team. We are in the process of improving ways as well as changing the team dynamics and structure. Good luck in all that you do!
