Pros

Higher pay for no experience

Cons

Everything else including the kindergarten atmosphere and the crazy religion that almost all managers belong to. They def control their PR image like their religion does.

First, we would like to share the fact that KnowBe4 has a ‘No Religion and No Politics policy’. While everyone is free to practice their own beliefs, those beliefs are not to be discussed during business hours and in no way impact our company culture or the way our organization is run. We treat all employees the same regardless of race, color, religion, national origin, age, sex, marital status, ancestry, physical or mental disability, veteran status, gender identity, or sexual orientation. We also treat all of our employees like adults. We practice radical transparency with all our employees instead of keeping them in the dark. We exercise extreme ownership - a mentality which has lead amazing teams such as the Navy Seals to success. Even our open paid time off policy shows that we trust our team members to be mature adults and do what is needed to take care of themselves while still pushing production. I’m sorry you feel that KnowBe4 is not the right place for you, and I wish you the best of luck in all of your future endeavors!

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.
