Pros

KBS, and Koch in general, are full of good honest business people. It is free market capitalism in its purest. I get evaluated against the talent that is available on the open market and I respect that. Performance driven culture Latitude to improve conditions around you Open feedback on performance/expectations Encouraged to take ownership of your work, development, and career Individuals that show promise get challenging assignments/roles Exposure to key decision makers Rapid growth for all Koch Industries companies I have seen people come and go. For most who have went, I understand and respect why Employees are open to change and challenging current processes

Cons

Do not do enough to connect employees in lower level roles to career path opportunities Not for those who are not driven to perform at above average levels Training and development programs need to be improved MBM (company culture) is a unique, but not as unique as it is made out to be Not a place to "cruise" through your career Antiquated systems and software (getting better) Subjective compensation structure Advancement to senior roles likely to require relocation to Wichita

Pros

Unique business philosophy, Pay for performance, Friendly employees, High collaboration, Knowledge sharing, Growth opportunities, Overall the company is seeing a lot of growth which is exciting.

Cons

If you don't take constructive criticism well this wouldn't be the company for you. They expect all employees to improve year after year and learn from mistakes. Everyone I work with likes the culture because it encourages you to grow as a person, which will lead to growth opportunities.
