Pros
Korn Ferry is a reputable company
Cons
Although my personal work experience with Korn Ferry can be categorized as standard, I did notice the lack of diversity in mindset, backgrounds, gender and ethnicity in groups outside of my direct reports. For a company that values itself on developing & motivating their client’s talent, KF seem to miss the mark internally with it’s own employees. Even with the rise of the company’s profits, the compensation of staff is stagnant which may be the cause of the high turnover rate. In today’s climate, companies should be more mindful of their inclusion, diversity, and cultural awareness and sadly Korn Ferry turns a blind eye to them all. The lack of POC in senior roles is obvious and a stark difference to the world outside of it’s office walls. I’m interested to know what % of the staff are women and people of color remain after mass layoffs and furloughs due to the latest pandemic.
