Pros

If you're trying to decide whether you want to work for KnowBe4, here are some questions you should be asking to help with your decision. How many companies started paying their employees MORE during the COVID-19 pandemic? - KnowBe4 did. We all got $50 a week extra pay to help us out. How many companies rent out Universal for a private party that employees can bring their friends and family to? - KnowBe4 did, twice now. Free food and drinks, no wait times for lines. Awesome holiday parties!! How many CEOs sit right out in the open with other employees? - Stu does! You can literally just walk up to his desk and talk to him. How many CEOs hold regular AMA (ask me anything) sessions with all employees - Stu does! We can literally ask him anything and he'll answer. He's such an open, honest, and awesome CEO! How many companies start every morning with a company-wide meeting? - KnowBe4 does. I love these meetings. They really keep us informed on what's going on in the company/industry. We aren't mushrooms - our executives don't keep us in the dark and feed us crap - they let us know what's going on! Not many companies do what KnowBe4 does. It is truly a unique workplace and I am so lucky that I get to be a part of it. If you get the opportunity to work for KnowBe4, do not pass it up! You can go and look up all the benefits (trust me, they're great), but when it comes down to it, you won't find another work environment like this.

Cons

It's a little bit of a drive from Tampa, but SO WORTH IT!

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.
