Pros

Leaving. That was the best reason for being there.

Cons

- Management are true snakes. They will viciously target and bully people. - Management skill is atrocious - They love to micro-manage when it's unnecessary. - The pay is abysmal. For the stress, workload, and expected hours outside of your required hours (for no extra pay), the wage is absolutely not worth it. - Some staff are quite clique-y, and like to make it obvious if you're not part of the clique, which is attached to management - Management is very-well into the clique, too. - Zero career progression, wage increase, or recognition for being a great employee, who goes above and beyond. In fact, the more you do, the more they expect out of you. You will hang yourself by doing a noticeably great job. Don't be fooled by their over-exaggeration of their 'amazing workplace culture' as the culture is abundantly toxic. Run.

Pros

Most employers pay lip service to culture. KINNECT genuinely lives and breathes it, and it feels different to anywhere I’ve worked. Leadership is visible and values‑driven, with the CEO doing a short weekly shout‑out recognising above and beyond efforts. The work is meaningful and relatively AI‑proof, being a people first business, focused on helping people. There is a strong investment in developing team members, and plenty of social and fun events that build real connection. I would highly recommend KINNECT as a place to work.

Cons

The environment is fast paced, which will suit people who enjoy that style of work. That said, work genuinely stops at 5pm, and there is a clear policy around no evening emails or emails while on leave, which creates a healthy balance.
