What do you like best about Kimball Electronics's CEO and the leadership team?

The original CEO at GES was the founder. He was very involved in the day to day business and very knowledgeable. He was replaced by a guy from Apple who looked and sounded impressive, but was less involved and less capable. The rest of the managers were great, except for the HR Director, who was not in touch with what was going on with the employees.

How would you improve Kimball Electronics's culture?

The culture of the company was good when they had a HR Generalist, who organized events, recognized individuals on birthdays, etc., and organized employee events. After they eliminated all HR positions, it was no different going to work than going to the store.

How did you prepare for the Kimball Electronics interview?

It's hard to prepare for an interview at GES/KEI because most of their work is done under NDAs so you don't know what they do. It is easier, now, to find information on KEI's website.

How does your compensation at Kimball Electronics compare to the industry average?
