Pros

Saturday is off , no festival celebration

Cons

Kilowott feels less like a company and more like survival mode. Managers don’t lead—they protect their own jobs. Founders chase visibility over stability. HR is crowded but ineffective, with leadership that lacks both knowledge and accountability. There’s zero consistency at the top. AI is pushed on employees by leaders who don’t seem to understand it themselves. The HR department is overstaffed yet severely underperforming. Despite having multiple people on the team, the actual work seems to be carried by just two HR generalists, while the senior HR manager and HR manager contribute little of real value. There is a clear lack of knowledge, ownership, and accountability at the top. Instead of leading, they appear more focused on staying visible to the founders and offloading responsibilities onto juniors. For a function that is supposed to drive people strategy, the current state of HR feels ineffective and, at times, almost dysfunctional. The company runs on a hire-fast, fire-faster cycle—join between June to December, and you might be out by early next year. Sales culture? Questionable at best. If you don’t fit into the noise, you risk being pushed out. In the end, you’re replaceable—sometimes for something as small as cost. Talent doesn’t always matter here.
