Pros

Brand name. KGI, the parent company of KSPS is a stable company with high moral values. They are systematic in their approach to day-to-day business development and moral direction of each company.

Cons

Unlike KGI, KSPS offers lower than average compensation commensurate with responsibilities. By design, KSPS upper management leverages the KGI benefits (pension, 401K, etc.) in order to pay their sales personnel below the market average. While this offers a temporary positive impact on the bottom line reported to KGI, the long term negative impact to the bottom line outweighs any immediate gains due to employee apathy, which severely impacts opportunity costs.

Pros

Good salary and Great Team work, if you have live/work according the the MBM principles then its a great culture

Cons

Management seem to be move more and more towards micromanagement which gets old fast. Also manager are always moving around and changing roles therefore management can never figure out of to fix the problems that need attention. Also Every Koch company that relies on KBS hates KBS so you get non stop customer rudeness. Also don't expect a promotion unless you look to apply to another department.
