Pros

Can't think of any currently.

Cons

Comp plans slashed, bonuses gone or unattainable through outrageously aggressive goals, demanding back in office after remote work (even for employees who have excellent sales performance), higher management is getting more harsh and rude pushing to work after hours, Scientology creeping in and not suitable for the work place.

Hi Knowster, thank you for your feedback. Firstly, at KnowBe4, we uphold a ‘No Religion and No Politics policy.’ While we respect individual beliefs, we ensure that such conversations do not take place during work hours, and they have no effect on our company's culture, internal promotions, or any business operations. With the guidance of our new ownership, Vista Equity Partners, we are working to enhance our compensation and commission structures for our sales team members. In terms of bonuses, all employees (after the initial 90 days) have the opportunity to earn monthly bonuses, ranging from $0 to $2,000, based on our company-wide sales performance. This year, we've already been awarded a $2,000 monthly bonus, in addition to several smaller bonuses, which do vary on a monthly basis. There has only been one month this year in which no bonus was attained. In regards to returning to the office, we genuinely believe that coming back can contribute to an enriched learning and team environment. Our intention is to promote collaboration, camaraderie, and a positive work environment for everyone. We genuinely appreciate the contributions you’ve made to KnowBe4!

Pros

Bonus, commission and steep interesting learning curve

Cons

Everything else, toxic workplace, horrible culture, no work-life balance, promotion of random people, you are a machine, not a person. Favoritism and nepotism
