Pros

Formally a good name, used to have good traders. Good experience for analysts.

Cons

Good traders leaving. No formal compensation structure leaves too much uncertainty. No longer pays for talent. Cult-like mentality around CEO.

Koch Response

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We acknowledge we think differently about compensation at Koch, we don’t have pay grades, we focus on value created regardless of job title or tenure and we look at pay on an individual contribution basis. That may be different, but where we certainly need to continue to focus is on competing with the market in whatever industry we may hire employees. We may not be apples to apples in the how, but we certainly appreciate the thoughts you have shared as we value our talent and our goal is to ensure they are incentivized for their contributions.

Pros

Good insurance. The Atlanta office was more flexible with remote/hybrid work

Cons

The politics. People devalue teammates. Constantly changing direction so no meaningful impact can be made. Not a lot of diversity. If you don’t ask how someone’s kids are, you get complaints that you’re cold and difficult. Got there and a reorg killed the reason I was hired and was never provided with any sort of hope of growth opportunities.
