Pros

Please see cons below. It's difficult to focus on any pros of this company given my experience.

Cons

After five interviews and two personality tests, including a meeting with the CEO, I left a job I loved and relocated cities for the opportunity to further my career with this company. I never imagined what would happen next. When I was finally hired, I was given little training. Rather than see this as a negative, I decided to do everything I could to make the best of it and pick up the job as quickly as I could. I was repeatedly told I was doing a great job including a formal performance review where I was praised for picking things up well despite the obstacle of limited training time. At this point, I had no indication of any underlying issues. It came as quite the shock when I was suddenly brought into an office and told I was being terminated after only two weeks. The reason given was "it wasn't a good fit for you or us". I asked for some explanation so I could at the very least understand and learn from what had happened, but they refused. I would understand if I couldn't keep up with the job, or had said anything to offend someone. Sadly, I'll never know. Despite being qualified for the job assigned and passing a strenuous interview process, Kelsan did not respect me enough to offer any explanation. What they did offer was a severance package contingent upon signing an NDA. I am forgoing this payment in order to share my experience with potential future applicants. One has to wonder if they use this tactic frequently to silence criticism. I find the lack of other negative reviews interesting. Perhaps it's possible I'm the only one? Their culture is mentioned over and over again, rather ironic given how they treat others.

Pros

Has one star because you have to.......

Cons

They could less about there employees. Managers are lazy and pass the buck on the employees. They go through employees like crazy. Stay as far away as you can from this company.
