Pros

Most of the people I know have great work-life balances, our bosses have been nice and understanding, and everyone's friendly. Tons of smart people working on cutting-edge tech. Benefits are pretty good. The NextGen group puts on fun events for younger/newer employees.

Cons

Salary isn't as high as most Bay Area tech companies. Santa Rosa is cheaper than most of Silicon Valley at least. The lax work environment for some teams, while contributing to the great work-life balance, also lets less-motivated people just coast, doing the bare minimum and collecting their salaries.

Pros

One star for the amazing people, one star for paycheck.

Cons

When I left, it took at least a month to decompress from the toxicity. KGM reorgs were a regular occurrence (5 in a 2-year span, for example) resulting in colleagues reappearing in roles in which they have no experience or disappearing all together. This created a culture of constant backstabbing and insecurity. Leadership picked favorites, ignoring the talents of many and this was reflective in bonuses. They undervalue and lose a lot of talented people, and it continues in spite of their recent positive quarterly reports. Reactionary marketing strategies result in a lot of wasted time and work. Read the rest of the reviews before taking on a role here. You will see a pattern.
