Pros

Middle management is top class.

Cons

CEO is completely out of touch now. He will justify not giving raises etc… while also bragging about his nice house, and the purchase of a new vehicle. He acts like we all have his type of money laying around. Comp changes turned out to hurt not help. Changes to monthly bonus has us earning less even in months we crush it. Overall, people who loved working here are growing more and more unhappy. Forced RTO for locals. Even if hired for Remote work.

We appreciate your perspective. We deeply care about each Knowster, and we work hard to foster an environment where personal growth, well-being, and mutual support are at the core of our company culture. Our CEO is committed to clear and direct communication, and when asked during an AMA he routinely conducts during our daily company-wide meeting about the Cybertruck, he openly acknowledges his decision to get one. This straightforward approach reflects his commitment to transparency, ensuring everyone is on the same page. Our bonuses are directly tied to sales goals, and I want to emphasize that these goals increase every month. Last year, we cleared over $7,000 in bonuses. There were also year-end pay increases similar to what we have done each year in the past.

Pros

You can meet some great people here, and PTO is great.

Cons

Don't expect a yearly raise, and bonuses have been reduced drastically.

Hi Knowster. We understand your concerns about the absence of cost of living adjustments in January, but it's important to clarify that this decision doesn't diminish our appreciation for your hard work. Our bonus program has already awarded a $2,000 monthly bonus and smaller bonuses this year, maintaining a trajectory similar to previous years. There were also year-end pay increases, similar to what we have done each year. If you have lingering questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to contact the People Operations team.
