Business outlook

Pros

-Casual dress is allowed. -Coworkers are super friendly and hardworking. -Frequent team activities and happy hours -Company is rapidly growing and expanding into new markets. -Community kitchen stocked with snacks and stocked fridge. -Company is small enough to get experience in all aspects of running a CPG company. -Generous PTO, summer Friday's, & monthly snack shipment. -Often promote from within and can try out different departments if not happy with current position.

Cons

-Growing out of current HQ, we need a new space asap. -No room for growth. -Salaries are low compared to other companies in NYC. -People work hard, but sometimes do not get acknowledged for it. -KIND feels like a startup, in a bad way. People are working hard to put processes into place, but they are not being followed. The people that have been here since the inception of KIND are having a hard time keeping up with the times. -Lack of structure. There are so many people being hired that no one knows what they are supposed to be doing anymore. -The CEO seems to not trust his team and has to make a decision on EVERYTHING. He really needs to let people do their jobs.
