      HR Service Center is a great place to learn as entry level employees

      Pros

      I am fortunate to work with a fantastic team of individuals from the HR Service Center, payroll, and IT. It's a great place to learn in the early stage of your career. I'm able to learn about my current role and the business.

      Cons

      Lack of organization and communication. Little to no opportunity to grow. Managements mindset is to get the most out of their investment which inhibits growth opportunities. There is no succession planning. Management uses deception tactics and in some cases flat out blocking to prevent you from advancing your career. If you are fortunate to earn a raise, expect to see it on your check 4-6 months down the road. There's no back pay unless you threaten to leave.

      Great Place for a Lasting Career

      Pros

      KBS is a great place to work (overall). I have been here 2 years and I still enjoy coming in to the office everyday. There is a great opportunity for growth and I am always acquiring new skillsets that can be utilize for future career opportunities. The company culture is the best that I have ever experienced and there is a true sense of camaraderie (almost family like). Everyone has been helpful and wants to see me succeed and I have not experienced the "crabs in a bucket workplace mentality here". Knowledge sharing is freely given from all levels and I can speak with my senior management team about any concerns that may arise and my concerns (one or two minor concerns in the past) and they are actually heard and acted upon. All of our offices and work stations are equipped with adjustable desk so you can actually stand up, at will, throughout the day. My responsibilities have evolved so much in a short period of time and I feel as if I am more than just a cog in a huge machine. I feel as if my work really matters and makes a difference. That's what most important to me.

      Cons

      Raises, bonuses and incentives are moderately obtainable but it takes too long from the time it is initiated to the time of the disbursement (3-months).

      Not as Good as it may seem

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      some of the Coworkers Its a job that may open doors for better company's with having them on your resume.

      Cons

      The management and leadership ask for ideas on how to implement changes and want you to create value but when you give them feedback or ideas its either swept under the rug and ignored. Low salary no raises or bonuses Some Employees and Management can be rude and have attitudes when trying to get assistance Misleading job descriptions and information provided in interviews regarding positions Lack of Vision for the departments of the Shared Service environment Management is unaware of how to implement changes or improvements for the departments Management is disconnected with the work and employees very low morale External employees do not have the slightest idea what the Shared Services can and can not do. Its a huge disconnect especially when they only know to reach out to 1 or 2 departments ALOT of Turnover Favoritism Lack of resources Process documents are outdated and not updated Training and Development No work to life balance No room for human error Commute Separation of Duties needs to occur among departments
