Amazing Culture, Team & Company

Pros

In my 2+ years at KnowBe4, I've worked on two teams and both were incredible. KnowBe4 is an extremely transparent company with daily meetings with our CEO. I can count on two hands the number of days he's missed our daily meeting. The culture is amazing, and the company really values work-life balance. There is an incredible amount of support from anyone you ask, from the mailroom to the boardroom. Leadership is accessible and open to feedback. Couldn't ask for a better company to work for!

Cons

None that come to mind immediately.

Pros

Product is best in the industry Easy to demo, not complicated technology Monthly bonus game is a great way to get the entire company bought in each month Daily stand ups, can seem repetitive, but I felt much more in the loop here than other organizations Lot of support from sales performance coaches to help you improve

Cons

Extreme micromanagement - from the day you start. Onboarding takes months - and you’re on camera from 9-6 pm so the trainers know you’re studying Once onboarded, weekly stat reviews as if you’re a bdr. Mostly covering call and email stats Run like a factory - was not allowed to take a sick day since teammates were on PTO Health insurance costs - highest I’ve ever seen at an employer Low salaries - pay is far below industry standard. The monthly bonuses are sold as an addition to your salary during recruiting but the goal was rarely hit while I was there

Pros

Decent pay, but making less than we were a year ago. Unlimited vacation the first 2 weeks of each month. Fully Remote.

Cons

Shady Management moves. No more line between sales and customer care, everything is sales push. Will break policy to look better on paper. The entire energy of the company has shifted in the last 5-6 months to a more negative feeling and forced smiles on camera.
