Thought immediately about posting a rant on the obsessive use of "they/their" in a singular context. Pick a pronoun for Kara and use it. Whether he is a she or she is a he, Kara is not a "they" But then I thought, nah. I'll just read something else.

"Their resentment may even cause them to push for keeping the icon after it has proven not to be the right thing for your product."

Either Kara is more than one person, or this is a grammatical error. It may be an intentional grammatical error but an error nonetheless.
