Pros

Devoted employees on frontline and plants

Cons

CEO Andy Blindfold plays favorites, micromanage, autocratic with own opinion as he thinks he is GOD and always right, with no interest to listen to a different opinions and create a culture of getting rid of out-performers that is potentially a threat to his status. Andy has a character problem and extremely lack of sense of safety about himself. A lot of inner healing work on his side to do and reflection on how bad a leader he is. Kelvion will not do good if he continues to be CEO.

Pros

Overall, I’m grateful for my time here and the opportunities I’ve had to grow professionally. Employees who are adaptable and solutions-oriented can gain broad experience quickly and contribute in meaningful ways. There are many dedicated people across the company, and the business has exciting long-term potential. I’ve especially valued the ability to take initiative and help shape projects rather than simply maintain the status quo. Like many growing organizations, some processes are still evolving. Communication, compensation alignment, and consistency across teams could continue to improve. That said, there are good people here who care and want the company to succeed.

Cons

There are still some people at Kelvion that aren't a good culture fit. Usually these people end up leaving but they can unfortunately do a lot of damage before they do. There are also opportunities to improve consistency in communication, processes, and recognition across teams and locations. As with many growing organizations, roles can evolve quickly, which can sometimes create ambiguity around priorities or career progression.
