Pros

Great pay, benefits and lots of work if you happen to be one of the few people left of their vanishing work force.

Cons

Kone has many great products but rather than dominate an area they choose to pick up the crumbs left over from the other large elevator companies. Kone management is more interested in the process of managing elevator construction, maintenance and repair than actually getting the work done.

Pros

The benefits were great although expensive. Lots of flexibility with your schedule for appointments. 2 days in office 3 days work from home. Good PTO and 401k was great.

Cons

There are a lot of great reasons to work for Kone but overall the environment isn't great. Management has their favorites so the employees that aren't within that circle are treated poorly to the point of quitting.
