*senior KBS leadership rewards those in the inner circle; those actually performing the work, contributing and putting in the hours are not * KBS leadership continues to promote favorites and friends, supporting poor leaders who are friends of the decision makers and punishing those that challenge decisions *base pay is mediocre with better options at other companies for talented performers

Thank you for all of your hard work and for taking the time to leave us a review. I am concerned to read of the atmosphere you described as this is not what we believe or support in our MBM culture. We believe in providing a culture that is open to innovation, supportive of growth and learning and base decisions off of performance and not favoritism. Please know that I am sharing your review with the appropriate leadership team as immediate feedback. I would encourage you to speak to your manager or local HR contact as well to discuss your concerns. Thank you again for sharing- Molly from Talent Solutions

Pros

The culture is one where innovation and creativity are rewarded when they create value for the team and company. It encourages people to think outside the box.

Cons

Koch is comprised of several operating companies and each one has its own personality. This can be a positive as well, if you don’t fit in one you might in another.
