Wasteful career move. Regretful waste of an inch on my resume. - Anonymous employee Knowland Employee Review

This review is frustrating. We can't change the writer's perception, but I can assure you that this isn't how we intend to operate, and indeed not how I and others view the company. There are some specific points that are simply not true, like HR would "paint a target", or "wildly inaccurate" data. But the writer also seems to have a general sense that we have some form of malicious intent in how we treat our employees. Anyone who knows me or our HR leader, knows that's just not the case. We treat our employees as adults, we encourage them to come forward with issues, and we try our best to deal with them and communicate the reasons for the actions we take. Do we always resolve things exactly how you'd want? Of course not, but we do in fact take every issue seriously. I would say that while we do have mechanisms for staff to provide anonymous feedback, that's never the best route to effect change since such feedback will be necessarily vague, which makes it hard for us to address. I can promise you that your constructive feedback will never be held against you. I wish this past employee would have displayed the same trust in me that I place in our employees, and brought their concerns to me. We need that sense of responsibility in order to continue building a fantastic company. Anyone serious about knowing more about me or about Knowland should come talk with me directly. Then you can judge first hand who I am, what I and we as a company believe in, and whether this is the type of team you would want to be a part of.
