Pros

MBM is an awesome management philosophy that makes being an employee a real pleasure. Transparency and feedback ensure that you know exactly where you stand, and what you need to do to improve. Compensation matches up to value creation, so if you're a contributor, you won't be disappointed.

Cons

Koch Global Solutions is the shared services organization for Koch Industries, which includes the enterprise IT capability. Unfortunately, the KGS IT capability is exceedingly inbred. Many leaders have not worked in IT outside of Koch, and so decisions are not informed by best practices, current trends, and best value creation strategies. Instead of establishing a vision that delivers services at the best possible price to their customers, they think that cost reduction is the ultimate goal. As a consequence, their services strategy is muddled at best, and leadership has forgotten that the least cost option is always to not do business at all. Despite not recognizing that fact, they're rapidly driving towards that goal.

Pros

Good insurance. The Atlanta office was more flexible with remote/hybrid work

Cons

The politics. People devalue teammates. Constantly changing direction so no meaningful impact can be made. Not a lot of diversity. If you don’t ask how someone’s kids are, you get complaints that you’re cold and difficult. Got there and a reorg killed the reason I was hired and was never provided with any sort of hope of growth opportunities.
