It increases the productivity of each employee to be rewarded and have recognition for the work done and feel valued.

Pros

When performance and effort are recognized, work is more appreciated and makes us continue to strive harder to achieve goals. I like the Kudos recognition and rewards program, which makes me feel valued for the performance of my work done day by day and encourages me to improve. Also, the survey method for us employees to be able to give opinions and points of view based on our experience.

Cons

I don't feel displeased at all with any of the functions or services.

while rewarding our employees is something we do when they expect it it becomes an issue

Pros

The idea was good but trying to implement it didn't work for our business

Cons

trying to reward employees all the time was a mess they are paid to do a job but in the end they thought that they should also get rewarded for doing the tasks they are paid to do

Both our management and employees find the product to be user-friendly. It gives non-manager staff members and first line supervisors a way to give recognition to deserving staff members. It has made a significant difference in staff incentives and morale. Kudos is an easy yet powerful approach to foster positive relationships with coworkers and raise morale—two things that are particularly crucial in these extraordinary times.

Pros

the application is user-friendly and powerful!

Cons

I don't like how it shields children from some real-world issues that they ought to be aware of—not the really awful and inappropriate stuff, just certain issues.

As a company we use Kudos to gather all the thoughts and concerns from the employees in each department. It makes it easier for HR to gage how the employees feel and what can be improved on.

Pros

Cons

Kudos is very easy to use and I have no concerns at this time.

Overall, I have had a very positive experience with Kudos. It is a wonderful way for me to focus on the good and remind others how much they mean to both myself and the success of our business.

Pros

Kudos is an easy way for me to keep up with my colleagues. I work remotely, and from afar, so I do not have that face to face contact that many others do. Kudos provides an easy to use, wonderful platform to remind people how appreciated, valuable and necessary they are.

Cons

Sometimes I cannot figure out how to like and reply to rewards and comments very easily. It does not seem as fluid and direct as it could be.
