Pros

I feel lucky to have found KnowBe4. This has been an amazing place to grow my career and I see no end to that career growth in the near future. Between rapidly growing teams, dedicated time for professional development, certification reimbursement (plus bonuses!), career coaching, and performance coaching, I can continue to grow my career at KnowBe4 for a long time. Plus the company culture is unmatched. The people are all amazing. Everyone is happy and motivated, which makes me happy and more motivated to work. Plus there is a whole team here called "Fun and Shennanigans" that is responsible for awesome events and keeping everyone happy. Also, I made $25k in additional bonuses last year (between company-wide monthly bonuses, certification bonuses, and an end-of-year performance bonus). That's a lot of money on top of my base pay!

Cons

Policies, procedures, and additional training can feel like a bit much at times (though I understand the need to build clear processes in a growing organization). Health insurance could be better

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.
