Pros

Work from home. As long as you do your part quietly you can stay under the radar. Generous vacation & flexible schedules.

Cons

A bunch of journalists with no business acumen should have NEVER started a company. This is a company led by a bunch of ladies who have no idea what they are doing. AND to top it off they let go of TWO regional managers while they were on maternity leave & going on maternity leave. During the heat of the pandemic the frontline on ground staff were on reduced hours with the expectation of working full time hours. It is not a surprise they are recruiting for ANOTHER Human Resources Manager. Every one that comes on board runs away within a few months.

Thank you for your feedback. We did our best to navigate throughout the pandemic and to keep everyone together. As the founder of KCJ and a mother of 3 daughters, I am very sorry to read your feedback and will make sure that we are much clearer with the team on organizational structural decisions made and on my background. I am not a journalist, and instead have a few degrees including a business degree and ran an IT company for 6 years before starting KCJ. Before I co-founded the IT company with my husband, I worked for a company and left because I had 3 young children and was not allowed to work flexible hours. Motherhood is something I celebrate and adamant to ensure that KCJ's maternity/ paternity leave is very generous and new parents are supported in their back-to-work. I am proud to be a female (lady) CEO and I welcome an email to discuss further: kate@kcj.org.
