Does KnowBe4 Have a Strong Company Culture?
Yes — and it is backed by verified data. KnowBe4 has earned the Certified Most Loved Workplace® badge four consecutive years: 2022, 2023, 2024, and 2025. The company also holds specialty recognitions for LGBTQ+ inclusion, diversity, women in the workplace, volunteering, career advancement, young professionals, and even top CEOs. That is not a coincidence. It is the result of intentional culture-building at every level.
The workplace DNA at KnowBe4 revolves around three core values: radical transparency, extreme ownership, and complete honesty. When something goes wrong, no one points fingers. Everyone looks inward to ask what they could do better next time. This mindset creates a team that trusts each other fully.
How Does KnowBe4 Support Career Growth?
Career development is taken seriously at KnowBe4 — not just as a perk, but as a daily habit. CEO Stu encourages every employee to dedicate one hour per day to learning new skills or deepening existing ones. That philosophy is baked into the company's structure.
- Tuition reimbursement for ongoing education
- Certification completion bonuses and reimbursement for study materials
- Internal promotions prioritized over outside hires
- Regular CEO "Ask Me Anything" sessions open to all employees
- A "No Door Policy" that gives everyone direct access to leadership
This commitment earned KnowBe4 the Most Loved Workplace® for Career Advancement 2025 designation — a recognition that reflects how employees feel about their own growth, not just company policy.
What Benefits Does KnowBe4 Offer?
KnowBe4's benefits package is designed to support the whole person — not just the employee badge. Here is what you can expect:
- Health & Wellness: Paid medical, vision, dental, gym benefits via Peerfit, in-office fitness classes, and life coaching
- Financial: 3.5% 401K matching, monthly company-wide bonuses up to $2,000, referral bonuses, and certification bonuses
- Work-Life Balance: Open paid time off, flexible scheduling, remote work options, competitive parental and adoptive leave
- Perks & Culture: Unlimited snacks, movie nights, theme park visits, relaxed dress code, and employee mingles
One standout feature is the monthly bonus program. Unlike most bonus structures that reward only top performers, KnowBe4's program unites all employees around shared company goals — making success feel collective, not competitive.
What Makes KnowBe4 Different From Other Tech Companies?
Most tech companies talk about transparency. KnowBe4 actually practices it — every single morning. Each workday starts with a 5–20 minute company-wide briefing led by Stu and the executive team. Every employee, in every department, hears the same updates at the same time. No silos. No information gaps.
Add to that a CEO who randomly selects employees for lunch each month, a suggestion box open to all, and employee resource groups for shared experiences — and you have a workplace where people genuinely feel seen and heard.
