Pros

Knoll is currently going through a transition period. There has recently been a number of senior leaders that have been at Knoll for years (even decades) leave and it's rumored that a few more will be retiring soon. The new batch of leaders are starting to breath life into the organization. "Procedure manuals" are being taken off the self, dusted off, reengineered or thrown out (thankfully) as they no longer make sense in today's corporate world. In the past 18 months the mood around the office is enthusiastic and positive. It's a great time to be working at Knoll as long as you are prepared to ride the wave as the company evolves.

Cons

Knoll is known for it's design and it sets the standards for others in the industry when it comes to producing innovative products - but this is a case of the plumbers kitchen sink leaking. Don't get me wrong, I sit in an awesome chair and have a great workstation. That is where it ends at this place. There is little attention given to making this a great place to work. No cafeteria. No gym. No daycare. No employee training/development programs. No place for employees to de-stress. The building itself looks tired and worn out.
