Pros

Kin is a great place to work. Here are my favorite things: * Radical transparency from the CEO down. * Good top-down strategic planning, so we're all paddling in the same direction and not switching priorities on a quarterly basis. * Empowerment of teams to figure out how to hit targets. * Employees from different teams have positive intent, and are eager and willing to collaborate. * Good balance of growth and profitability (i.e. good financial controls means a stable place to work).

Cons

We have our fair share of growing pains - trying to more with less, teams doing overlapping work because our processes haven't caught up, etc. Plenty of opportunity for improvement, but we're heading in the right direction.

Pros

Remote work, decent benefits for some things. If you thrive in high stress/high pressure situations, with constant change & pivoting priorities, this place is for you.

Cons

Kin having the value “Operate lean; deliver more” should tell you pretty much everything you need to know about working at this company. There is little to no training yet the expectations to produce & perform are very high. Flexible/unlimited PTO is part of the benefits but if you feel like you can’t ever take time off because you’re so busy with work/deadlines, it’s not really a benefit. Not to mention, the time leading up to taking more than a few days off is SO stressful trying to get everything done or ready to be handed off that you question if it’s even worth it. Burnout is a very real thing at this company. They terminate people quite frequently here so you are often in fear of losing your job which adds another level of stress on top of everything else. While they are flexible, the work/life balance is poor. Working evenings & weekends is frequently necessary to meet deadlines.
