Pros

Kantina (Free Bar) Free Parking Gym Good Benefits

Cons

Long Hours Unrealistic Goals/Deadlines No room for creativity Very slow opportunity for growth New CMO pushing for in person meetings during a pandemic, two team members got COVID and then everyone in the meeting had to go and get tested due to exposure. CMO pushed out more than half the marketing team but did not reduce any workload, only added more. I was doing the work of 4 people when I left and I asked multiple times for work relief. CMO requested I not take any PTO on top of it. CMO goes against Kinecta's "core" values and nothing is done about it. I thought I was going to retire here. The new CMO came in and destroyed the marketing department. He will talk over you, not listen, ask multiple times for the same item, and belittle you. He is not caring or compassionate. He uses others to micro manage for him. He will never take blame for anything. It is always someone else's fault even when you can prove him wrong and show him his own emails with time stamps. It is sad that when he was brought in, he was given a very strong team who got along and excelled in many ways but he was able to ruin the department moral and make employees feel like they had no other options but to leave the company. Like other reviews say, he is very toxic and extremely hard to work with. He makes the work very stressful and I dreaded working everyday for him. He is the definition of a dictator versus a leader. Even if he were to leave, I would not go back to Kinecta knowing that they allowed someone to be there for so long with so many complaints and going against the "core" values, which are supposedly held so sacred.

Pros

Working for Kinecta in my current position has been an amazing experience. I have the opportunity to work remotely and with many wonderful people. I've had the opportunity to grow and learn and contribute the success of my company with many wonderful incentives. I recently reached my 5-year anniversary and was awarded many beautiful gifts including an Ice Cream Maker I was able to choose. What fun this company is!

Cons

There are no cons that I see.

Pros

Culture and community involvement that’s about it

Cons

Favoritism has become ridiculous. Promotions are no longer based on job performance, work ethic, or leadership — they’re based on who you know. It’s sad and disappointing to see Kinecta come to this. Employees who work hard and consistently deliver results deserve equal opportunity and recognition, not to be overlooked because they aren’t part of the “right” circle.
