In this scenario, Kim created and distributed a survey to gather feedback from department members, which constitutes primary research. On the other hand, Finn conducted online research about the pros and cons of flexible hours and their impact on employee productivity, which is recognized as secondary research because he is analyzing existing data and studies rather than collecting new data.

Thus, the correct answer is: Kim conducted only primary research, while Finn conducted only secondary research.
