Gain Access to Modern Projects and Skilled Colleagues
Angestellte/r oder Arbeiter/inHat zum Zeitpunkt der Bewertung im Bereich IT in Köln gearbeitet.
Gut am Arbeitgeber finde ich
I have been at KI performance for several years and since that time i have developed my knowledge and experience further.
However not all former colleagues have experienced the same. Before you read some of the earlier negative comments, here is an objective overview from someone working hard to upskill themselves and blocking the noise around them.
KI performance is a Data - AI consultancy. We are lucky enough to be one of the few niche consultancies to have access to modern technology within the DACH region and be a trusted partner of both Microsoft and Databricks + Clickhouse. ( i would know as i have interviewed myself with other consultancies that do not stack up to the type of projects we have)
my colleagues are upskilled and certified on all courses that are necessary to add value to their projects. These certifications are paid for by the company.
Career growth and seniority is not measured by years of experience but by how well you are able to add value and knowledge to your projects and build something the customer actually wants.
With the emergence of AI and like other consultancies, if you are not able to prove that you can execute on the project then it is hard to level up your salary.
If one does their due diligence, one can see previous alumni of KI performance / KI group on Linkedin with titles such as:
- Managing Director at an Ecommerce giant
- Head of Product at a Unicorn
- Assistant to Board Director at a Mobility Enterprise
- Resident Architect at a Tech Vendor... and more
Each of these people have gained valuable experience at KI performance and alot of our tech people have left for our clients which reinforces the relationships we have with them.
Therefore the company provides a platform in order to work with and network with skilled professionals.

Gut am Arbeitgeber finde ich
The colleagues and fun projects
Schlecht am Arbeitgeber finde ich
Poor feedback culture, no appreciation of people's effort, very poor onboarding, poor project planning but high expectations and pressure to deliver.
Verbesserungsvorschläge
Invest into your people and teams, create some vision for the company, create company culture where people want to belong to. Stop treating your employees just as another number!
Arbeitsatmosphäre
When a new project starts or is about to come on board, the pressure is rather high.
Work-Life-Balance
Generally you are flexible in defining your day and where you work from, but there is still a pretty clear expectation for you to be at the office 3 days a week, does not matter whether it makes sense for your current project and set up or not
Umwelt-/Sozialbewusstsein
Does not exist
Kollegenzusammenhalt
The colleagues are great and very helpful, some great people and professionals there. I really do not understand what they are doing there as they could have something so much better with their skills.
Vorgesetztenverhalten
You are treated as someone they can fire or swap tomorrow
Kommunikation
Poor feedback culture, focus on booked hours and delivered project scope, nothing else matters.
Gehalt/Benefits
I learnt that even among my colleagues with the same role there were quite massive differences in salaries. So there is no transparency at all
Interessante Aufgaben
Some projects were fun and you get to work with some interesting companies. However, how the projects are stuffed and planned is a pure disaster - important is to get work somehow done, patch holes here and there and send invoice to a customer.

Supportive colleagues but unclear leadership, favoritism, and culture of overwork. Think twice before applying!
Ex-Angestellte/r oder Arbeiter/inHat bis 2025 im Bereich IT in Köln gearbeitet.
Gut am Arbeitgeber finde ich
The working atmosphere among colleagues is very positive, with a collaborative and supportive environment. My direct supervisor was an excellent mentor, providing guidance and constructive feedback that contributed significantly to my professional growth. The company offers interesting projects and finances professional certifications, such as Microsoft and Databricks, which help with career development. For employees who receive proper guidance, there are good opportunities for advancement. For fresh graduates or junior employees, this can be a good place to start a career.
Schlecht am Arbeitgeber finde ich
Management tends to favor certain colleagues who interact closely with them, while others are often overlooked. Communication at the management level lacks transparency, and decision-making can be inconsistent. Work-life balance is limited, with frequent overtime that is neither compensated nor tracked. Salaries are below market average, and many corporate benefits are unavailable to most employees. Employees working on smaller projects often face limited resources and support, making it difficult to implement scalable solutions. The company also prioritizes bigger clients over smaller ones, which can result in neglected projects and limited guidance for the colleagues working on them. Additionally, being assigned to projects that allow for learning and growth often feels like a matter of luck. Everyone should have a fair chance to prove themselves and develop professionally, rather than relying on fortunate assignments.
Verbesserungsvorschläge
The company could improve by involving technical staff in project planning and time estimation to ensure that deadlines are realistic. Communication and transparency between management and employees should be strengthened, and fair treatment should be extended to all colleagues, not just those who have closer interactions with management. Proper compensation or accounting for overtime would improve work-life balance. The company could also provide stronger support for colleagues in smaller clients and projects, and develop a clearer strategic plan to help the company grow and prevent negative consequences like those resulting from the 2024 layoffs. Also, when it comes to spending, the company invests in large parties after all-hands meetings. Instead of allocating resources to such activities, it would be more meaningful to focus on remaining competitive in the job market and retaining talent through fair and sustainable salary adjustments.
Arbeitsatmosphäre
The working atmosphere among colleagues is very good. On an organizational level, however, too many unnecessary meetings significantly slowed down efficient work and solution implementation.
Image
I do not think the company has a particularly strong reputation. Smaller clients were often neglected or received limited support, as priority was given to more important, bigger clients. Colleagues working on smaller projects frequently experienced little backing from the company. Additionally, the way staff were let go in 2024 continues to have negative consequences, which stemmed from the company’s lack of strategic planning. I would recommend reaching out to former KI employees and carefully considering your decision before applying, especially if you are planning to relocate to Germany. I have seen colleagues move across continents only to be dismissed during their probation period, which can be extremely difficult, particularly when adjusting to a new country without job security.
Work-Life-Balance
Work-life balance was effectively non-existent. Technical teams were excluded from project time estimations, and projects were assigned with unrealistic deadlines, which frequently required overtime work.
Karriere/Weiterbildung
Career development and training opportunities were generally good for those who received guidance, such as the support I had from my manager. For colleagues working on smaller projects, however, limited time and resources often meant they were only able to patch existing solutions rather than implement scalable solutions following best practices. The company does finance certifications from providers such as Microsoft and Databricks.
Kollegenzusammenhalt
While team cohesion among colleagues was good, this did not translate into a comparable sense of support or alignment when it came to management interactions.
Vorgesetztenverhalten
My direct supervisor was supportive and acted as a strong mentor, offering constructive feedback and taking employee input seriously. This had a positive impact on my professional development. In contrast, other supervisors were largely part of the management level, with limited direct engagement.
Arbeitsbedingungen
Working conditions were unsatisfactory. Overtime was neither paid nor accounted for. Most corporate benefits were not very useful to employees.
Kommunikation
Communication among colleagues was very good. In contrast, communication with the management level lacked genuine and open dialogue. For example, I was assigned to a project two weeks before my departure, yet the managing director who assigned me never spoke to me about it.
Gehalt/Benefits
Salary was lower than the market average for comparable positions, and negotiating salary based on performance was difficult. During salary negotiation periods, the responsible managing director was often difficult to reach. As a result, some colleagues remained on the same salary for more than two years, while others received increases more frequently. Salary progression appeared to depend largely on visibility and individual relationships rather than consistent criteria.
Gleichberechtigung
Equal treatment was limited. The management circle tended to favor a few colleagues who actively interacted with them, while others were often overlooked. Some capable colleagues were unable to excel in their roles because management did not have a clear overview of individual contributions. When evaluating performance, they often consulted only one or two of these favored colleagues, which sometimes led to inaccurate conclusions. Lastly, many former colleagues, including myself, had not received a work certificate from the company even several months after leaving.
Interessante Aufgaben
There were sometimes interesting topics and tasks. However, only a few of them could be implemented properly within the given timeframes. In addition, the company struggled at times to acquire new clients, which led to accepting projects with unusual or unsuitable tech stacks that went beyond the original job description.

Arbeitgeber-Kommentar
People Experience TeamHuman Resources
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback and for highlighting the positive collaboration with colleagues, the supportive mentorship of your direct supervisor, and the opportunities for certifications and professional development.
At the same time, we would like to clarify a few points. We place strong emphasis on transparent processes, structured project staffing, and equal development opportunities. Project assignments and career progression are not based on personal proximity to management, but on skills, availability, and project requirements. While this may not always be perfectly visible from the outside, we continuously work to improve transparency and communication around these processes.
Consulting projects can involve phases of higher workload, especially when deadlines are tight. However, our clear expectation is that overtime remains the exception rather than the rule.
Regarding compensation, we operate with clearly defined salary bands for each role that are regularly benchmarked against the market. Individual salaries within these bands may vary based on experience, performance, and responsibilities, but they follow a structured framework rather than arbitrary decisions.
We appreciate you sharing your experience and wish you all the best for your future career.

People Experience TeamHuman Resources
Liebes ehemaliges Teammitglied,
vielen Dank für dein Feedback zu deiner Zeit bei uns. Wir möchten die Gelegenheit nutzen, auf einige Punkte einzugehen und unsere Sicht darzustellen.
Wir legen großen Wert auf klare und transparente Kommunikation und arbeiten kontinuierlich daran, diese im Team weiter zu stärken. Dafür haben wir verschiedene Formate etabliert, die allen Mitarbeitenden ermöglichen, Themen einzubringen, Fragen zu stellen und sich direkt mit der Geschäftsführung auszutauschen.
Zum Thema Work-Life-Balance: Wir setzen auf Vertrauensarbeitszeit, um unseren Mitarbeitenden größtmögliche Flexibilität zu ermöglichen. Eine Auszahlung von Überstunden ist in diesem Modell nicht vorgesehen – stattdessen soll die Arbeitslast im engen Austausch mit den Führungskräften so gestaltet werden, dass sie realistisch bewältigt werden kann.
Auch zusätzliche Leistungen sind uns wichtig: Neben Corporate Benefits stellen wir unter anderem das Deutschlandticket sowie die Mitgliedschaft im Urban Sports Club vergünstigt bereit, um unseren Mitarbeitenden zusätzlichen Mehrwert und Flexibilität zu bieten.
Im Bereich Karriereentwicklung und Gehalt führen wir regelmäßige Feedback- und Entwicklungsgespräche. Wir sind überzeugt, dass jede und jeder, der Leistung zeigt und Verantwortung übernimmt, auch bei uns die Möglichkeit hat, sich weiterzuentwickeln und aufzusteigen.
Wir hätten uns gewünscht, dass dein Feedback etwas konkreter gewesen wäre, damit wir die angesprochenen Punkte besser nachvollziehen und gezielt Verbesserungen ableiten können. Nichtsdestotrotz nehmen wir deine Kritik ernst und werden sie in unsere laufende Arbeit einbeziehen.
Vielen Dank für deine Zeit bei uns – wir wünschen dir für deine berufliche Zukunft alles Gute.

Great Place for Self-Starters, but Lacks People-Centered Culture
Ex-Angestellte/r oder Arbeiter/inHat zum Zeitpunkt der Bewertung nicht mehr für dieses Unternehmen in Köln gearbeitet.
Gut am Arbeitgeber finde ich
- Plenty of room for initiative: Those who enjoy working independently will find many opportunities to take on responsibility and lead their own projects.
- Interesting and meaningful projects with creative freedom.
- Trust from higher management: You’re given responsibility early on and the freedom to drive things forward.
- Colleagues are motivated, friendly, and contribute to a nice day-to-day work environment.
Schlecht am Arbeitgeber finde ich
- There is little structural and personal support from higher management, as they are overworked and rarely available.
- Recruitment partly follows a trial-and-error approach: even if a candidate is considered a good fit during the hiring process, this does not guarantee long-term employment. New employees are hired to test their suitability on the job, and if it doesn’t work out, the employment relationship is quickly terminated – leaving little planning security for those affected.
- HR has a strong company-centered focus: the emphasis is on administrative processes. Initiatives related to benefits or employee well-being are only implemented if they clearly benefit the company.
- The corporate culture is strongly business-driven, with little emphasis on long-term employee retention or loyalty.
- When leaving the company, flexibility is only granted if the employee forfeits pay – which highlights where the company’s priorities lie.
Verbesserungsvorschläge
- Higher management oversees too many areas, which leads to overload and limited availability. Empowering senior team members to take on more leadership and decision-making responsibility could help distribute the workload more effectively and improve team support.
- Improve the hiring process to ensure that new employees are brought on with a clear intention to retain them long-term. Currently, there often seems to be a lack of clarity about what type of person is actually needed and why. A more thoughtful and strategic approach to recruitment would lead to better long-term fit and stability for both the company and employees.
- Align HR more strategically and people-oriented – not just administratively. HR should consider individual cases, advocate for employee well-being and satisfaction at work, and take an active role in creating a positive employee experience. This is essential for building long-term employee loyalty.

Dear former teammate,
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience at KI performance. We value your openness and detailed feedback — it’s exactly the kind of input that helps us grow and get better at what we do.
We’re glad to hear you appreciated the freedom to take initiative, the creative scope in projects, the early trust from management, and the friendly, motivated team atmosphere.
We also take your critical points seriously. We know that management availability can be limited due to high workloads, and we are already hiring additional support to reduce this load and make leadership more accessible. Our hiring process has also been refined to ensure greater clarity, long-term fit, and stability for both new colleagues and teams.
In PX, our work goes well beyond administrative responsibilities. We place strong emphasis on employee well-being, individual development, and building long-term loyalty. Alongside our benefits — which are designed with employees in mind — we offer initiatives such as team-building events, clear career paths with regular performance and development reviews, knowledge-sharing formats like tech talks and meetups, support for German classes, opportunities for certifications, and programs that promote physical well-being. These measures are part of our ongoing effort to create an environment where colleagues can grow both professionally and personally.
Thanks again for your constructive feedback and the time you spent with us. We wish you continued success and all the best for your next chapter.
Best regards,
Your PX Team

It’s great to hear that you value our flexibility, the opportunities to actively contribute, and our open team culture. These are key elements of how we strive to support both individual growth and collective success.

Poor management & a lot of turnover: would not recommend
Ex-Angestellte/r oder Arbeiter/inHat zum Zeitpunkt der Bewertung nicht mehr für dieses Unternehmen in Köln gearbeitet.
Arbeitsatmosphäre
The atmosphere at KI performance is completely chaotic. Everything is urgent until the management just straight up ignores you for weeks and you realize the request wasn’t that urgent after all.
Gehalt/Benefits
Below market pay, very hard to push for a raise since the company is always “struggling”.
Umwelt-/Sozialbewusstsein
No social initiatives within the company, no community work.
Vorgesetztenverhalten
I don’t think that the managers acted on any feedback ever given to them. I understand that they are overloaded, but they also never tried to change anything. There’s always a feeling that the company is not doing well financially - but nothing is communicated to the employees. Every quarterly company meeting started with the same phrase “we completely changed our approach to clients and within the company”. After 3-4 of these it was just comical..
Kommunikation
Amongst peers the communication was okay. But you never knew how long your colleagues were going to stay - a lot of people were fired each quarter. The ones who stay at this company for long are usually playing inside politics and can be really toxic.
Communication with management was a disaster. They always said to take ownership, but never enabled anybody to do so - and if you actually decided to do something independently, the reaction from them was usually extremely negative.

Dear Former Colleague,
Thank you for taking the time and sharing your experience with us. We’re sorry to hear that your time at KI performance wasn’t as positive as we’d hoped. Honest feedback like yours helps us improve, and we truly appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts.
We know a fast-paced environment can sometimes feel chaotic, and we’re working to make our processes clearer and communication more transparent—especially regarding priorities and strategic changes. Your point about management communication is something we take seriously. To improve internal dialogue and decision-making, we have restructured our weekly team meetings to place a stronger focus on updates from leadership and the People Experience team, ensuring everyone is aligned. In addition to our quarterly all-hands meetings, we’ve introduced monthly update sessions for deeper discussions on key topics.
We also hear your concerns about career growth and compensation. Our performance-based salary model is designed to recognize and reward contributions fairly, and we continue to refine it to ensure transparency and competitive opportunities for growth.
When it comes to company culture, we understand the importance of fostering a strong sense of community. That’s why we offer team events as well as smaller get-togethers like Easter brunch and other informal gatherings to bring people together outside of work. We value these moments and are always looking for new ways to strengthen team connections
We truly appreciate the time and effort you put in with us and are sorry it didn’t live up to your expectations. If you ever want to share more insights, we’d be happy to listen.
Wishing you all the best in your next chapter.

Think Twice Before Relocating: Don’t Risk Your Career Here
Ex-Angestellte/r oder Arbeiter/inHat bis 2024 für dieses Unternehmen in Köln gearbeitet.
Arbeitsatmosphäre
Colleagues are very supportive, fun, and easygoing. However, management operates in a typical consulting style—impersonal and transactional. You’re treated as just a number. I’ve never witnessed firing happen so easily; most employers avoid it, but here it happens frequently. They can change their mind at any moment and terminate you, especially during the probation period. It was the most stressful probation period of my life
Work-Life-Balance
Work-life balance can be decent during calm months, but once a project starts, it’s completely disregarded. Holidays are typically only possible during periods when there are no active projects
Kollegenzusammenhalt
Most of the colleagues are great, but those who thrive in this company tend to be quite toxic
Vorgesetztenverhalten
it's just poor
Kommunikation
Communication was very unpleasant. The tech lead put a lot of pressure on me during the first six months, often making me feel like I was a poor-performing employee—but it turned out this was the same for everyone. The manager, surprisingly, was highly incompetent in communication. He didn’t say a single word to me on my last working day and actively avoided me during my final two weeks.
Interessante Aufgaben
During the interview, they’ll emphasize how different they are from other consulting companies, claiming to build platforms from scratch and always choosing the best solutions for clients. In reality, that’s far from the truth. You’ll end up implementing heavy, unnecessary tech for clients who don’t need it or working on dull and repetitive tasks. There may be some decent tasks but it's less often.

Dear former Teammate,
Thank you for sharing your experience at KI performance. We truly appreciate your honest feedback, as it helps us learn and improve. We’re sorry to hear that your time with us came with challenges. You’ve raised important points, and we’d like to provide some clarity.
Regarding the contractual adjustment, the initial level assessment was based on the information provided during the hiring process. As we moved forward, it became clear that an adjustment was needed to better align your contract with the role’s actual requirements. This change was made to ensure fairness across teams and was discussed transparently with you.
Regarding workload and time off, we have a clear and transparent vacation policy in place. We encourage employees to take time off, even during probation, to maintain a healthy balance. Given the nature of our specialized, project-based teams, coordinating time off is key to ensuring smooth project execution and in rare cases our project leads need to realign availabilities with their teams.
We take concerns about team dynamics seriously. A respectful and supportive workplace is a priority for us, and toxic behavior is not in line with our values. Employees are encouraged to reach out to People Experience Team or the Lead with any concerns, and we are proud of our inclusive and positive work environment.
We understand that feedback from the tech lead may have felt intense at times. Starting a new role comes with expectations, and we aim to make those as clear as possible. Our 180-degree feedback system provides regular, constructive input to highlight strengths, set expectations, and offer support. The development of our Team is a key priority to us.
We also regret that communication from your manager, especially during your final weeks, left you feeling unsupported. We recognize the importance of handling such conversations with professionalism and empathy. To improve this, we’ve introduced leadership training to help managers navigate sensitive situations better. Every employee’s contributions matter, and no one should leave feeling unappreciated.
Despite these challenges, we’re glad you recognized the strong teamwork among your colleagues. Collaboration and support are core to our culture, and we remain committed to strengthening these values.
KI performance is evolving, and while we acknowledge past challenges, we are committed to learning and growing. Feedback like yours helps us shape a workplace based on transparency, clarity, and respect. If you’d like to discuss your feedback further, we’d be happy to continue the conversation. We value your perspective and appreciate open dialogue.
Thank you again for your honest feedback. We wish you all the best in your future endeavors.
Best regards,
Your PX Team
