Kinly

What is the best part of working at the company?
Modern offices and world class technology first hand experience. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
Work culture, internal customer service (disrespectful behavior from colleagues), ignored email requests. The struggle of start up in the USA in itself is stressful. They still need to go a long way to figure out how can they be successful, right now they are just trying to beat competition by offering everything and anything but from the inside they are really struggling which is causing strain on employees.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Management keeps changing every few months or an year cuz they are trying to be successful. Currently they are going back in time, old school culture, do as I say approach, instead of using to class Saas tools they are going back to the Excel sheets and manual emails (thank you to the new mgmt). Don't expect growth here, just try your best to make ends meet with unskilled employees who they can't get rid of.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Teams calls, people jumping on you calendar without asking, doesn't matter you are meeting'ed out. Trying to deal with different department who has no sense of accountability. Careless, reckless behavior.

When I started at AVMI, now Kinly, they gave me old almost useless Surface tablet that was crashing and slow. AV cover tech job required you to go around their clients and help out onsite team.You could be sent to a place you like or the the place you don't like. I actually had my sights set on a development in company but I resigned after couple of months. They were badly organized and kept sending me places I didn't want to go, for example a bank, where you delivered flipcharts and markers to the room...hardy ever doing any AV job. When I said to my managers I don't fancy going there due to the job that has a little to do with proper AV, they sent me there for two weeks again. It appears they never listen to you and the attitude is if you don't go there, they will have someone else in your place anyway, as long as the client is happy with cover, you don't matter. Would never work for this company again. 

I was hired for a temporary assignment in March. After being hired contract with full-time hours, I was immediately cut town to part on day one of working in an obvious bait-and-switch. My supervisor had a terrible attitude and could not give coherent instructions to save her life. Instead of utilizing a temp, she dumped her workload off onto me without any training. She provided zero leadership and held one-on-one meetings for the sole purpose of complaining. Her co-workers often made fun of her too. 

The laptops are very old and have 15 minutes of battery when unplugged. The company has the most disorganized financial records I've ever seen. The only thing positive is that they have good coffee. This is a thankless gig for people who need money; you would have a more fulfilling career in retail. Do not waste your time.

This company was great to work for. After the AVMI merger...lets just say I would take your talents and desire for the AV field elsewhere. Morale is in the toilet...everyone will throw each other under a bus to save themselves and even if you have been loyal through the reduction in wages and stayed and not jump ship through the pandemic...you can easily be discarded. Loyalty does not count here. Too much politics and now this branch office is being ran into the ground. Maybe some day they will work it out...but for now I would focus somewhere else.

Job not as described, what else can I say? Some very nice folks, but this company grew too fast and is not ready for prime time on the level they are trying to play in. Still a lot of "Mom 'n Pop" culture leftover from early days and department Directors and VPs were picked without regard for people or management skills in critical areas. Look elsewhere!

The New England team WAS good but they just let 3 of the best people go on zero notice.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Absolute S#it show of a company… would not recommend 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
The disorganization in general 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
I was field tech so didn’t spend much time in office but when in office was tense and unfriendly… high turnover so always new faces

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Service call to 1-3 clients in the nyc metro area… some travel

I book hotel, car and airfare for employee

I worked from home did not work any employees or in the office

I learned how to be flexible and understanding of the changes that can occur in this type of field

The job held great benifits and provided many PTO hours. Management was not very helpful and was dishonest. Working in the US but hand management in India. Due to time difference they never were available to help

Absolutely insane. Thanks god I am done with that stupid company. Be aware your choices before you make a decision or change your job. Not a good place to work. There is no job security. They kick you out at any time. Mark my words. 

Ambitious company with a great list of clients. 

Very strong in Managed on Site services, with Kinly staff employed  onsite serving client needs.

Could do with better systems as they are outdated and inefficient
