Hey Knowster! We are happy to hear there are many things you love about KnowBe4, such as the commission structure, work environment, and company culture! We do offer some opportunities to work from other countries; however, because of local regulations and laws, certain circumstances don’t allow employees to work from every country in the world. I encourage you to submit a ticket to People Ops with your request to work abroad, and they can evaluate it to see if we are able to accommodate your request! We are also always looking for suggestions and ways to expand our benefits further to fit our Knowsters needs. We encourage you to reach out to KnowBeWan or use the virtual suggestion box to share your suggestions with us so we can continue to keep employees like you happy and motivated :-)

Pros

Great office snacks, free ev charging, cool coworkers

Cons

Out of about 100 AE's only 10 hit Quota, OTE is a joke there. It's possible to hit quota if you are lucky with your inbound leads, but if you want to hit quota every month you have to do something moreso out of the box. I was trained by hard closers and have a lot of expierence with cold calls so i came up with my own script and was getting a demo a day, and was doing a demo a day. The demos did lead to sales as well, so it wasn't a waste of time. I got fired because of a "lack of professionalism" I spoke off script all the time because speaking on script leads you in to the Kool-aid drinkers club, aka not hitting quota consistently. I was fired without warning, even though I was told I had an incredible work ethic and was exceeding the ramp-up numbers. I just didnt match their sales style, they are not looking for salespeople, they are looking for sales associates. They make you work 9-hour days, 1 hour mandatory lunch that has to be taken in the middle of the day. 9-6pm. Their handbook even says you are allowed to take this lunch at 5 pm to go home sooner, but the managers never let that happen. DO NOT BE CREATIVE AT THIS JOB, DRINK THE JUICE.
