Kingston Technology Employee Reviews for National Account Manager

"I worked at Kingston from April 1998-March 2012."

What do you like about working at Kingston Technology?

"Kingston is owned by two wonderful men. They allow people to take risks and try new things. When in the office employees are allowed to dress full casual. The owners truly respect their employees and trust that their employees have the best interest of the company in mind."

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"To understand Kingston read the website and learn about John Tu and David Sun."

What don't you like about working at Kingston Technology?

"The management put in place does not have the passion or the vision of the owners. Kingston was started 25 years ago and the owners and original management had a driving passion and commitment. The current management does not have that hunger and allows the middle management to run many departments."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Management needs to take classes on how to manage people. The biggest mistake that Kingston has made is promoting people from within to management, and these people do not take the job to heart. To be a good manager, one must understand management principals and take courses. Many people in management think managing just means control. Managing means mentoring, guiding, helping people to grow in their roles."
