Pros

Still have open PTO, for now. Ability to have remote or hybrid options, for now.

Cons

The company is shifting to a global focus and leaving many of our Clearwater based employees behind. The focus in the US is shifting to Arlington and NYC whose employee count is very low. Millions of dollars is being spent on the offices because that is where the CEO wants to be. The rest of the offices are given crumbs. It’s gross how much butt kissing is done to these employees who are rude and demanding. We had an amazing culture that is being rewritten and removed. KB4 is a shell of what it used to be. These changes are all being done so the company can be sold again and a few select people make money. Screw everyone else that has put blood sweat and tears into making something great. KB4 sold out for a VC company and a CEO who literally doesn’t care.

Pros

Just a standard company that is run by a venture capital group, no cultrue and only concerned about the bottom line and it got worse after the original CEO left.

Cons

All they care about is how much money, lost their culture
