I was an employee worked for KP invested Startup by 3 extremely smart MIT Phds. Smartest people I ever worked with - one of them can do Analog, FPGA, Linux kernel all the same time. We created a system with 10G interface (15 years ago) deployed in Comcast and generated 40+ million revenue with < 10 employees.

After that, KP installed their own CEO with old analog modem background, fired the extremely experience VP of engr, hire/fire 3 CTOs and hire 160 people to "scale" the company and burn all the cash without deliver one single product in the next 6 years. The CEO also manager to get rid of all 3 founders.

I'm a former early employee at a KP backed start up. Nothing but respect and good vibes from the folks I met with or presented to from KP.

I've done some contract engineering work for them onsite. Super professional and talented engineers inside.

I’ve had very positive interactions with them. (Not an insider.) They we’re very professional and helpful.
