Karat is a company which cares more about candidate experience than the experience of their interviewers. Interviewers are treated as work horses with ever increasing performance standards. The flexibility of being an interviewer is great but it is a career graveyard long term.
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
The fact everyone works remotely was contractors means there are no social interactions with other people
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Leadership need to get better at appreciating their interviewing team as they are the ones creating the business value
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
They need to pick a direction for their interviewing team. They either have a loyal fully committed and onboarded interviewing team or they continue trying to do this with contractors who can't meet their expectations while still earning an acceptable wage
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
The fact interviewers get paid the same regardless of their experience and skills set is a joke (their senior interviewer title does not make any sense). There is no sharing of equity and other benefits. interviewers are expected to perform like employees while being paid as contractors.
What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?
Interviewers are continually berated and held to forever changing impossibly high standards. The post interview QA team completed about the tiniest detail such as going 10 second over one of the sections (a section in which you have to ask 3 questions each with 3 parts all within 10 mins)
