Pros

Good benefits if you can get hired. Best way to get hired is if you know someone, like a boss, personally.

Cons

I was hired on temporarily - was told that it could lead to something permanent. Everyone was friendly at first and kept telling me what a great job I was doing. Later, when the critical stage of my project was completed I noticed I was no longer being given a chance to continue learning how to perform other daily tasks that I had requested to be taught, and told previously that I would have a chance with. I wanted to find better ways to integrate myself within the department by expanding beyond the duties I was initially hired for in hopes of being hired permanently. But soon I realized they had no intention of letting me grow (this meant they would have to pay me more). Total politics and mind games, I was finally let go. But I'm not the only one - good workers let go meanwhile people with little experience and who are lazy get hired just because they know someone. Never again - WORST PLACE I'VE EVER WORKED IN.

Pros

My voice has always been heard at Kingston. Ideas 💡 are valued. They have cared about the welfare of their employees. Leadership has always motivated and encourage employees to do their best.

Cons

Its great place for stability. There isnt much vertical growth but a lot of opportunities to learn from other divisions of the company.
