Pros

The best reason to work at Karmak is the people you get to work with on a daily basis. Karmak has done its due diligence when it comes to being a somewhat modern workspace in a community that tends to be behind the times. People are there to work, but with the understanding that everyone has lives that exist outside of those walls. It's nice to be in a place that recognizes that.

Cons

1) Pay could be more competitive - this comes up yearly with employee surveys. 2) Location isn't great - Carlinville has little to offer. 3) Onboarding can be slow. There's a high learning curve when it comes to figuring out what Karmak does and what it offers. Takes time for anyone new to get up to speed.

Pros

Quality Product Great story for the company

Cons

Benefits are VERY expensive. Product is 50% more expensive than the closest two competitors and the primary competitor is arguably the same product for half the cost. Management thinks they can overcome that problem by "selling better" Extremely disorganized between departments. Overall sales structure creates in-fighting. More often than not, sales person is putting out fires that other departments started because they don't know any roles outside of their own. Sales process is taken away from sales person prior to deal officially closing but then if deal goes backwards, salesperson gets their commission taken back even though they weren't handling the rollout. Extremely complicated rollout process.
