Pros

Everyone here is very nice and helpful. If you feel obligated to ask a question, you CAN, the only bad questions in this company are questions not asked. There is a "No Door" policy where you could want right up to the CEO (Stu) and ask him a question directly, or just say "Hey" and ask how his day is. This is honestly the single greatest company I've worked for, and I'm very glad to be part of their team. When it comes to the training process, Matt teaches you all of the ins and outs, and company vocabulary, that you need to know in order to do your job as efficient as possible. Great job Matt!

Cons

I have yet to find any cons working for Knowbe4.

Pros

A business that actually cares about its employees and their goals. It's got a motto of RIGHT FAST FUN for a reason. We are often caught laughing with ourselves and clients with joy, as we all push towards our goals for the month. Along with that they profess to us the need to do it right and anyone in the company would stop and assist you to do so.

Cons

They hire on smart, fun, encouraging people so you need to keep that negativity that you had at old jobs out of here. It is a fast process to get started and you will need to focus during training, but the training staff is always friendly and encouraging through the whole process.
