Pros

- Lots of challenging projects to help with which makes the work fulfilling and non-stagnant/redundant - Ability to put your own "take" on your role as long as you are providing value, and receiving positive feedback - Flexible working hours and scheduling options (work from home) - Big focus on culture which can apply to life situations as well

Cons

- Workload can get overbearing at times due to the quantity of projects always coming in - Huge division of labor on specific IT functions which can make certain teams very pigeonholed - Team members move around a lot, and teams change function, which leads to confusion on who does what - Inconsistent quality of work with certain teams

Pros

I have worked at Koch Industries for six years now. I really enjoy the people I work with and the challenges I'm faced with daily. They really hold true to the Guiding Principals. I have had the opportunity to work with employees in different locations and it is consistently implemented! It is great to work for a company that is passionate about their Principals as well as ensuring employees are fulfilled.

Cons

If you are resistant to change this would be a tough environment to work in. There is constant change and innovation within groups that can be challenging to adjust to if you are not used to this. But once you realize the change is for the best you can become open.

Pros

If you are looking for a place where you have full ownership of your work, Koch is a great place to work. They allow you endless opportunities to continue to learn and grow. I have had the chance to work with not only accountants but other Koch employees from different groups and different Koch companies as well. I really enjoy the people and the culture I am surrounded by. You spend a lot of your time at work in your life and you want to make sure you enjoy going to work everyday. The culture is everything I was looking for in a full time job after college.

Cons

Possible to feel overworked at times but communication with your direct report is key.
