Pros

Nice office in Needham, MA. and decent benefits. Not much more to tell

Cons

Poor firmware (constant updates needed and they are a pain to do. Very poor management from Israel. The product still needs lots of work to stabilize

Thank you for taking the time to write your review about Kaminario. We embrace open discussions and honest feedback and communication as you know is on our top priority I’m glad to hear you were happy with our benefits and office space, it was designed to empower our start up culture and in specific the no door policy and team work. there was a lot of time and effort to put into both of things. I’m Sorry to hear that you feel uncertain about our product stability and firmware. Our top notch engineers are working constantly to improve both and I am very proud of what we currently have, obviously there is a way to go in order to delight our customers and bring them the cutting edge technology while scaling with them.

Pros

Great technology. Some good people. Management is very discriminatory depending on if you are Israeli or not. If you are not then do not expect much advancement or concern for your career.

Cons

Management is short sided and uncaring if you are not Israeli. They will speak Hebrew when discussing secret topics they don't want Americans to know about. They openly lie on sales presentations and their website. Point this out and you are labeled "difficult".

Good team with very poor leadership

Pros

Great R&D team that built a very innovative product. Top talents already left the company but the R&D is still strong.

Cons

Very poor management. Treating employees very poorly. Very aggressive against former employees - using aggressive legal actions to prevent them from working for "competitors" (which according to Kaminario is any Storage company).

Thank you for taking the time to write your review about Kaminario. As you mentioned, our R&D team has a unique mix of brilliant and passionate talent that creates the culture we are so proud of and makes Kaminario a great place to work. We believe that each person has the right to choose where to work and this freedom includes going to work for competitors. As the VP of Human Capital, I am doing everything possible, along with the executive team, to make sure that people want to stay at Kaminario. We are obsessed to use our cutting-edge technology to bring the highest value to our customers and solve their problems for the long run. Our R&D developers, and many others in the company, are exposed to everything from financials to strategic decisions and our future technology roadmap. While we are remarkably transparent, we must do everything possible to protect our IP and our stakeholders. I am sorry to hear that you have found our actions aggressive.
