      Pros

      I would not recommend for anyone. Huge management team and terrible company culture. Run from this opportunity there's no need to waste your time.

      Cons

      No job security. Highly qualified employees are leaving the company. They clam that the company is growing, but it is not true. They hire more managers and fire employees - who would do it in a truly growing company.

      Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We're sorry to hear that your experience isn't meeting your expectations. We've had a lot of growth over the last year, including growing our management team to make sure our teams have the coaching and support they need to be successful. With that growth we've also focused on company culture, adding a monthly All-Hands meeting to improve communication and celebrate successes, implemented a more generous PTO policy, improved our benefits, and created a peer-nominated Core Values Award to recognize and appreciate our employees. If you have specific concerns you would like to address I encourage you to reach out to me directly to discuss: Kbyers@kindersystems.com. Thanks, Kate Byers VP of People

      Amazing Place to Work

      Pros

      They are an amazing company to work for. Everyone is polite and very helpful, not just management, especially in the beginning when you are still learning. There is a lot of room to grow with in the company too. If you have the drive and ambition you will go far.

      Cons

      Remote work takes getting used to if you haven't done it before, but they train you very well and will work with you on anything you need help with.

      Used to be a great place to work, before it got bought out by a venture capital company.

      Pros

      You get to work from home, they pitch in a few bucks for your Internet costs. Instead of a Christmas party or bonus you get a gift card. And you get to clock in and out just like you did when you were in High School and had that part-time summer job.

      Cons

      As has been pointed out age discrimination is a very real thing. They have become super heavy on the management side and to this point have been firing workers left and right. Hard work and product knowledge mean little, and it is clear that the venture capital company that bought them a year ago is looking to cut costs so that it becomes attractive to sell off later.

      Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. Working remotely from home can be a positive experience for a lot of employees, but you are correct that it makes holiday celebrations more challenging. We are happy to announce our second annual all company retreat has been scheduled for next spring, where just like last year, we will spend time celebrating in person as a team. To address your comments about clocking in and out, all nonexempt hourly employees are required to clock in and clock out to ensure we pay you correctly, including overtime pay. The federal government sets guidelines about which roles should be classified as exempt or nonexempt but you are welcome to reach out to me if you have questions about how your role is classified. At KinderSystems we do not make any employment decisions based on age, and we’re proud of the diversity of our employee population. Over this last year we have focused on not only creating the framework to support our growth, but also on the employee experience. We have grown our leadership and management teams to ensure that all of our employees have the support and guidance they need to meet their goals. We have implemented a 401(k) with a company match, created a more generous PTO policy, and improved company health and wellness benefits. If you have additional concerns you are welcome to reach out to me directly at kbyers@kindersystems.com. Thanks, Kate Byers VP of People
