Pros

The only good thing that I can say about my role with NKF is that the base pay was average/fair. Bonus pay is just OK. There are some good people there.

Cons

Terrible leadership. The company stock is a joke and won't budge. Very poor benefits. No retirement contribution at all. Terrible health plan(s). Awful work/life balance. No positive company culture at all. The company is very disjointed after several acquisitions. You can't really get administrative support in an effective way. If you have to travel, be prepared for the company to borrow money from you with a promise to reimburse you IF you follow their complicated and antiquated reimbursement process. In other words, they won't give you corporate cards. The technology and consulting department(s) are in complete shambles with terrible leadership. This company has no appetite to be aggressive or progressive. If I was a customer, I wouldn't do business with them based on what I know about the internal practices and the type of people they have hired. At this point, I'm guessing they've lost as many clients in consulting engagements as they have kept. All due to very poor leadership, lack of vision, no integrity, and lack of discipline. It will be quite easy to pick off their clients one by one.

Pros

Decent office, PTO, and Benefits.

Cons

Worst company I’ve ever worked at! No transparency from leadership. Lack of direction from leadership. Employees are set to fail from the beginning, with daily changing priorities and zero communication. Leadership blames employees for mistakes that are set up by leadership. A revolving door, employees disappeared every two, three, six, and eight months. Some employees resigned, and others were laid off, and there is no explanation from leadership. Many employees take the offer and leave their current employer, only to find out it's the biggest mistake they've made by coming to work at this company. Many high-producing brokers feel that they are “Gods.” Every team works in silos. This company has no culture at all. Don't work for this company, run the other way!
