Great work environment for toxic personalities
May 19, 2023 - Senior Tax Analyst in Atlanta, GARecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
good benefits, hybrid work schedule, and opportunities to learn complex tax concepts. Its an easy place to hide if you're not ambitious. Its also a great place for those who've been accused of having a toxic personality!
Cons
Long work days, no concern about work-life balance, busy season is year-round, starting pay is high but subsequent raises are low. Because of the bad office culture, your coworkers are either shady or they've completely checked-out

Cons
Assessments are usually very subjective
- Former Employee, more than 3 years★★★★★
Pros
Pros are I went in with a ton of vacation from prior company before Koch bought them out.
Cons
Koch is a Racist male oriented company. If you are a woman but specifically an African American woman you will see everyone around you grow, get praised, get their raises and higher roles but they will sell you these dreams of you advancing and it never happens to always keep themselves ahead of you and you in 3 years where you started with a dollar more in pay, when you’re just as smart as them. The only way for an African American to succeed within Koch is to be apart of the cliques or be Buddy Buddy with Leadership after work going out to drink and to the bars, casinos, etc. Nothing is a secret not even going to speak with HR and your Manager behind closed doors because the time you get back to your desk the conversation has made it to your colleagues.

It will change your life
Dec 8, 2022 - Incident Management Specialist in Wichita, KSRecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
You will be surrounded by the most amazing minds you'll ever meet. The groups and efforts that are value-driven are showcased by the executive teams monthly. There will never be a dull moment and every day is different. The achievement of team-oriented objectives and maintaining a customer centric focus are highly sought after and are a standard throughout all of the Koch companies.
Cons
Remote work is still a novel concept and you must be near C-Suite for management to entertain the idea or you must have great favor with C-Level Executives. Talent acquisition is par, retention is poor. Morale is mediocre but they talk a good game. Drink the Corporate Kool-Aid fast and early, but even then, watch your back and trust nobody. Lastly, do not get accustomed to seeing anybody as there are significant shifts in roles, teams, titles, and companies all the time.
