        Pros

        Larry is a great CEO, other than his choices for the new leadership taking over. They allow us to work from home 100% of the time.

        Cons

        The new senior management/future guys who will be running the company are micromanagers, not personable and rude. They listen and watch everything you do (not just customer service) and only care about themselves. People are leaving left and right. This is not the same company it was 5 years ago. There is always change within organizations but these are not good ones and they are losing good, loyal employees because of it. Not much room for growth. Very few people move up, unless you are related or close friends with the owner.

              Pros

              The people at Key Benefit Administrators follows through on the company's core values in its daily actions. You really feel like you are part of the big picture and are recognized when you do good work. Although much of the workforce is remote, the engagement has remained. The good part is we can still go to the office if we so desire. Given the flexibility and desire to develop staff, I would highly recommend employment at KBA if the opportunity came to fruition.

              Cons

              I have not encountered a down-side while working at KBA

                      Cons

                      You have to work a little harder at keeping your employees engaged now that most of our workforce is primarily remote.

                        Being able to work from home

                        Cons

                        Limited Opportunities for Advancement. The annual reviews are very flawed. They are specifically designed to avoid paying employees what they are truly worth. Compared to other companies with similar jobs the pay is low but the responsibilities are thru the roof. I also found that rules,policies and regulations are not fairly adminsistered in departments as a whole. Selective enforcement is not a good look for a company that prides itself on diversity and equality.

                        2

                        Thank you for taking the time to leave your thoughts - I am sorry to hear that was your experience at KBA. We will use your feedback to work on improving our organization. I hope your next opportunity is a better fit for you!

                      Senior Graphic Designer

                      Hello all- I have a question. Context: I've completed a four-stage interview process for a design position at a large retail corp. The final interview on Nov 15 went very well! I sent thank-you notes that week and last holiday week sent flowers and an edible arrangement, thanking and asking about next steps. They said they have been busy + will reach out soon. It's almost been two weeks. They have been so eager the entire process and now it's quiet. Should I email them again? Is this normal?
