Stay Away- They Are Firing Everyone

Pros

Unlimited PTO. Job for Life if you are part of the cult

Cons

They are firing everyone, without notice. They waited until they sold and went private so they didn't have to report the more than 30 plus people fired, and they have plans to fire at least 20 more. The scumbag owner went to the superbowl while he fires over 10% of his team. It's a cult for the church in downtown Clearwater. If you wear a bracelet or necklace, you are set. If you are related to anyone at the company, you will have a job. Even if you are married and report to the same supervisor- they don't care.

Hi, Stu here. I want to simply reiterate what has been happening around KnowBe4 and why. KnowBe4 is optimizing for the current effects of the economic cycle, and as part of that, we are no longer offering the KnowBe4 Compliance Manager product. In our 12 years as a company we have seen massive headcount growth, but eventually every organization that lasts long enough is bound to have some restructuring. Our restructure has impacted less than 3% of employees, and there have not been company-wide layoffs. My first priority has been to care for the people affected by these changes. We frst reallocated team members to other positions within KnowBe4. For the few who could not or did not want to change roles, we provided an ample severance package. Above all, I wanted to ensure these team members were cared for as they transitioned away from KnowBe4 to find other opportunities. I am determined to keep KnowBe4 a highly efficient, fast, sane, and fun workplace with the positive and supportive culture that our Knowsters love. I appreciate all you have done while working for KnowBe4 and wish you the best of luck in all your future endeavors.
