Pros

Nailing down a "few reasons" to work at KnowBe4 is pretty difficult because there are so many. Outside of all the awesome perks (open PTO policy, free snacks, free coffee, company-wide bonus, etc.) there are a few things that I really appreciate about the company from a deeper business standpoint; 1) Culture: Obviously the culture here is phenomenal. One of my favorite parts is the dress code; if you don't get pulled over on your way to work you're good to wear it. Being from a business background where your clothes determine your success, I really appreciate this factor on a deeper level. It's cool to be in a place where what you know determines your likelihood of success, rather than what designer business wear you have on. 2) Talent: There are so many talented people in this organization, it's insane. Everyone that you come in contact with is at the level they should be to be successful in their role and if they're not, training is readily available. It really makes coming to work exciting!

Cons

Cons? The only "cons" you'll find around here are people that avidly attend Comic Con.

Pros

Great office snacks, free ev charging, cool coworkers

Cons

Out of about 100 AE's only 10 hit Quota, OTE is a joke there. It's possible to hit quota if you are lucky with your inbound leads, but if you want to hit quota every month you have to do something moreso out of the box. I was trained by hard closers and have a lot of expierence with cold calls so i came up with my own script and was getting a demo a day, and was doing a demo a day. The demos did lead to sales as well, so it wasn't a waste of time. I got fired because of a "lack of professionalism" I spoke off script all the time because speaking on script leads you in to the Kool-aid drinkers club, aka not hitting quota consistently. I was fired without warning, even though I was told I had an incredible work ethic and was exceeding the ramp-up numbers. I just didnt match their sales style, they are not looking for salespeople, they are looking for sales associates. They make you work 9-hour days, 1 hour mandatory lunch that has to be taken in the middle of the day. 9-6pm. Their handbook even says you are allowed to take this lunch at 5 pm to go home sooner, but the managers never let that happen. DO NOT BE CREATIVE AT THIS JOB, DRINK THE JUICE.
