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

Pros
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.
