Pros

Check their reviews by date and don't believe the 5 star ones. They're created by bots.

Cons

Don't believe what they say.

It's important to note that Glassdoor reviews are submitted by individuals based on their own experiences. While we value every perspective, it's not possible for us to manipulate or fake responses on Glassdoor. We acknowledge that KnowBe4 may not be the perfect fit for everyone, but the majority of our employees express genuine satisfaction with their work here. We are committed to creating a positive and inclusive workplace environment for our team members.

Pros

If you’re prepared to lose your work life balance and buy into the facade then you can earn okay money.

Cons

No stability at all, I saw countless people lose their jobs! You can never feel settled here. No progression opportunities. Favouritism from management. When you start there is an illusion of an amazing culture which quickly peels away when you start the role. Honestly lost myself here

Low pay, bad management

Pros

the training program was good, good product

Cons

You are given strict almost unachievable kpis. Inexperienced and unprofessional managers that will berate you. Low pay. Many people I was in training with got out before they even started...Very cliquish - if you don't fit in, you will be out. Lots of pressure to fit in. It's strange.

Thank you for providing feedback on your time with us. The environment you describe is certainly not the environment that we want to create at KnowBe4, nor the typical environment that most employees experience. Our local HR team would sincerely appreciate it if you could email us to provide more in-depth feedback on the experiences you described, so we can further investigate your situation. We know how critical management is to creating a positive company culture, so we aim only to hire and promote the most capable managers, and we focus on training these managers thoroughly through our internal programs. We are always looking to improve this training and provide our managers with the best resources possible. Your feedback will help us do just that. We wish you the best of luck in the future.
