Kraft Analytics Group reviews

- No focus on what the company does or is. This means a project you pour your heart into will end up going no where, or you will be pulled from project to project. This is, unfortunately, driven from the very top of the organization. - Very cliquey upper management group, with the culture seemingly derived somewhat from the Patriots organization. Its "do your job" from a from a football perspective, however that doesn't translate into business culture. - Lots of micromanagement also from the top of the org which causes them to hyper focus on being in the office. There was a group of middle managers trying to infuse a remote culture before COVID, and they were always turned down in their efforts. In fact, KAGR had no intention of going remote until the state forced their hand because of COVID and were attempting a full return to office that first spring and summer before anyone had access to vaccines. - Pay is far below average, even before 2022 inflation.

One of the worst environments I’ve ever been in. As the leaders parade around on stage at a conference that definitely conflicts with their day job, they act like they are a great leader and builder of sports careers. The truth is they break people down, accost lower level analysts, and ultimately don’t let them grow. This place is a dead end after a little bit. This is different than other toxicity in the sports industry. This is really a place where you’ll never grow. There is an inner circle at the top that hasn’t left. If you’re not in that group, then good luck ever getting anywhere. They continue to promote people who are terrible managers and leaders and don’t know strategy in sports beyond what the CEO thinks is the right thing to do. From fudging numbers on slides to satisfy her to acting like decisions are actually “data driven”, it’s truly amazing that people continue to have high regard for this place.
