Pros

Unlimited vacation time (which can't be more than what manager thinks is appropriate).

Cons

No work life balance. Poor management decisions. Very high employee turnover.

Bummed to see this on Glassdoor - clearly - Keas is not a good experience for this person and perhaps not a good fit for this person. And while Keas isn't for everyone - if you want to connect offline, happy to do so. I appreciate the feedback to be more open, and take more responsibility for failures - I believe we do that - tho if there are more and better ways to do so I am all ears. One factual edit - employee turnover is actually low (less than 10% over the last 12 months) so curious why its believed to be different to the author - again - happy to review this offline if you like. --Josh Stevens, CEO -- josh.stevens@keas.com

Pros

There have been two large layoffs in the past three years of operation. In 2015, Keas was averaging an employee resigning per month. Then there was a layoff after Thanksgiving. With desperate times comes desperate measures, but Keas seems to always be in a state where they continually lack resources to provide quality service and products to their customers... then resorts to cutting jobs. When I was working at Keas, the company functioned in an unstructured manner. There was a desperate need to re-create processes and operationalize in every team. That challenge can be exciting or daunting, depending on who you ask. Thus, Keas is ever changing. A dynamic environment, although stressful, is also a learning environment. Keas is not for everyone. I see the best employees go above and beyond, even if it means working a 50 hour work week. They'd be focused and passionate about their work, unaffected by the sea of their coworkers complaining how much they hate their job. - Easy to make business decisions - Unlimited PTO* - Membership to Equinox gym ($200/month value)

Cons

- No monthly/annual performance reviews; raises need to be demanded - Extremely difficult to acheive work-life balance (those working 8 hour days are seen as "taking it easy") - Unlimited PTO comes with the pressure to check emails and work remotely when you're off
