Pros

Growing company with a leading software product; huge potential if leadership figures out how to structure and manage well. Many social initiatives that attempt to build a positive workplace.

Cons

Most of Professional Services executive leadership is clueless about the way a well run software company professional services organization acts, the way it would be organized and operated, the way upper management would communicate downward, and how to improve our consulting services. The organization structure is poor. It is a mystery of where top leadership is focused other than new sales. Consultants are being burned out on problem projects. All these factors make this is a ticking time bomb.

Thanks for taking the time to write a review on Glassdoor; we appreciate any and all feedback from our employees. As you’ve noted, we have been experiencing very high growth over the past few years, and with that often comes some growing pains. Group structure and communication are two areas of focus for our HR team this year; we recognize that we have to do better. If you have specific ideas that you are comfortable sharing with us offline, we would absolutely love to hear them so that we can talk them through. Scalability and communication are not easy problems to solve but they are super important. Thanks again for the feedback, and please do reach out to us with your ideas!

Pros

Good work culture Work life balance Employee benfits

Cons

Due to management change, there was a lot of firing recently without any cause. Company was doing well but they still fired people without any reason. Also people who went on maternity leave.

We are glad to hear that you enjoy our culture and working at Kinaxis. We are in a growth phase and that inevitably comes with change as we align our business to execute on our strategy and vision on behalf of our teams. We did not terminate the employment of anyone who is on maternity leave and strongly encourage employees to speak with their managers about any questions or concerns they may have. Alternatively, you can also reach out to recruitmentprograms(at)kinaxis.com if you have any additional feedback that you would like to share with us. We are here to support employees through change and thank you for taking the time to write your review.

Pros

- Free organic fruit - Well funded company that is a leader in its industry (translation: good job security) - Pleasant social atmosphere -Loves their customers -Willing to evolve

Cons

-Expect premium salary when entering company but 'lowball' increases when promoted within the company. -Expect someone to have more clout than you simply because they have been there for decades, (unless you are an executive) -Many Silos.
