Pros

You get treated equally. The company culture is amazing! I've never seen anything like it. All employees - including the managers and executives (even Stu) - get the same monthly cash bonuses if the entire company reaches the sales quota. This makes everyone work together like a real team! There are morning meetings everyday at 9 AM and Stu keeps everyone updated - how awesome is that?! Every employee knows exactly what is expected of them. Every employee knows that this is a workplace so you've gotta do work but it is a lot of fun! There are free snacks. Bean bags to take short naps on after lunch (make sure to tell your manager though so that they know where to find you...lol). Overall, KnowBe4 is growing super fast!

Cons

I don't know of any at this time.

We practice radical transparency, when you are in hyper-growth everyone really needs to be on the same page, you cannot treat anyone like mushrooms! :-))) Warm regards, Stu

Pros

Great office snacks, free ev charging, cool coworkers

Cons

Out of about 100 AE's only 10 hit Quota, OTE is a joke there. It's possible to hit quota if you are lucky with your inbound leads, but if you want to hit quota every month you have to do something moreso out of the box. I was trained by hard closers and have a lot of expierence with cold calls so i came up with my own script and was getting a demo a day, and was doing a demo a day. The demos did lead to sales as well, so it wasn't a waste of time. I got fired because of a "lack of professionalism" I spoke off script all the time because speaking on script leads you in to the Kool-aid drinkers club, aka not hitting quota consistently. I was fired without warning, even though I was told I had an incredible work ethic and was exceeding the ramp-up numbers. I just didnt match their sales style, they are not looking for salespeople, they are looking for sales associates. They make you work 9-hour days, 1 hour mandatory lunch that has to be taken in the middle of the day. 9-6pm. Their handbook even says you are allowed to take this lunch at 5 pm to go home sooner, but the managers never let that happen. DO NOT BE CREATIVE AT THIS JOB, DRINK THE JUICE.
