Pros

For a company that emphasises security awareness training, they place a lot of attention on training and create a success plan for their employees to succeed. All employees are given training about KB4's product before moving on to their own roles. That way, you are well versed in the IT industry and what KnowBe4 do. They also have a great culture that supports each other and helps you out as long as you are willing to learn and ask questions.

Cons

If you are not a team player then Knowbe4 might not be a good company for you.

Pros

KnowBe4 really put their employees first. This includes training from the get-go, and they have coaches and drills to guide you to ensure your success. So far everyone has been really welcoming, and helpful. The overall vibe is fantastic!

Cons

Very fast paced for a hyper-growth company. I can see why some people may not be able to adapt quick enough and choose to leave. However there are trainers and coaches to help you throughout if you feel that you are not doing as well as you want, so take advantage of that

Pros

Strong culture, clearly defined goals. Achievable goals. Everyone knows exactly what needs to be done to be successful. Knowbe4 has created a structure that will help employees to be productive. You have a deep training program, a performance coach, a career advisor, and your manager. All with the same mentality to provide you the tools that you need to be successful. Knowbe4 was a big surprise for me that has exceeded all my expectations so far.

Cons

As the company is adapting to the COVID-19, training and onboarding procedures are going through the same. For a new employee, training was so comprehensive that got confusing and overwhelming sometimes. The evaluation criteria were changing depending on the trainer that was supervising your progress. This was a minor issue, but understandable because the whole process was being adapted to support growth during the pandemic.
