      Pros

      I've been with the company for just over 3 months. First of all, anyone who "disapproves" of the CEO has never actually met the man. He treats everyone he comes across in the company with dignity, courtesy and respect. The people are what really makes a company great and the people at KAR are extremely hardworking, dependable and loyal to the company. Great benefits, PTO, work/life balance. With so many different companies under KAR- there are a lot of opportunities for career advancement and have witnessed a lot of support for internal employees. Employee referral bonuses are amazing.

      Cons

      Compensation could be better.

      A Company in Transition

      Pros

      Competitive compensation Fast to adopt new technology Fairly flexible to new ideas for a large company

      Cons

      Benefits aren't as good as most tech companies. These need to approve to attract top talent There is a bit of a culture clash between old guard employees and a recent influx of new employees. The new employees are largely from Interactive Intelligence and are pushing for change more quickly than some legacy employees are comfortable with.

      Let's be real....IT here is a joke

      Pros

      Pay is above average. There are a lot of good people in the ranks.

      Cons

      No work life balance, cliques rule mid to senior level management. It's a former Interactive Intelligence/Genysis world and if you're not "in the club" you're out of luck. Let's be real. All of the positive reviews here are posted by KAR internal "Cheerleaders", those paid to try and boost the image. The culture is toxic and the leadership is lost. Don't make the mistake, look elsewhere if you are looking to make a move in IT. Benefits are subpar for a company that claims to be a "great tech company to work for". You can do better at any midsize company in this area.
