Pros

- Clear Goals and High Levels of Autonomy - Supportive Teammates - Healthy and Open Communication - Very Fast-Moving

Cons

- Autonomy to define what you work on and how to achieve your goals may be too unstructured for some people. - It's very hard changing a highly regulated industry like insurance and takes immense amounts of effort. - Goal/outcome-driven culture may have too high of a level of intensity for some people.

We’re so happy to hear that the autonomy, supportive teammates, and open communication have stood out to you. These are core to how we work and grow together. You’re absolutely right that this level of ownership and fast-paced, outcome-driven environment isn’t for everyone. It can be intense at times, especially given the complexity of transforming a highly regulated industry like insurance. That said, it’s also what makes our work at Kin both challenging and rewarding... Thank you for being part of it!

Where are the cost of living raises?

Anonymous employee

Business Outlook

Pros

Work from home. Your peers/team

Cons

Once a year there are merit based raises which I understand, but even employees who go above and beyond consistently meeting and often exceed required numbers/emboding the company culture etc still meet expectations and then get a merit based raise of 2-4% which is barely cost of living raises. While most every other company I've seen and worked for previously provided a once a year cost of living raise usually 3-5% on top of merit based raises which at minimum were 5%

Culture isn't what it used to be

Pros

Lots of new business and growth

Cons

The culture of the company just isn't what it used to be. I used to love working here and take pride in it. Kin was once very open to learning and pairing and teamwork, now it's all about being this super self-sufficient and know-everything individual. This works well for some, definitely great for the C suites, but very suffocating for others.
