Pros

Students, partners schools, connection create at long term assignments

Cons

There are rarely any assignments daily, from September-march I could pick up maybe 4 assignments but they were all 40+ minutes away. Really bad job security. Partner schools you sub at are amazing! No complaints. Had a huge hiccup when the new school year started because I was locked out of paylocity due to a contact information update and no one knew how to get me in, this caused a delay in pay for almost 1 month. Kukoa Management fired me after a mysterious no call no show, I never picked up an assignment for a particular day, I never got an email, phone call, text, or voicemail. In fact I was out of town this day but was made at fault since I didn’t put a non work day despite the mistake! They also could not provide me with proof. Again, every day I log in looking for an assignment and have picked up 4-5 in 6 months… that’s $500ish dollars y’all. I let them know of the mistake and communication errors was not given grace, I’ve never even been late. They also changed their pay from weekly to bi-weekly without notice! If your looking for a job to make money, do not depend on kukoa

Pros

Flexible scheduling and the ability to be on call for a specific area if needed. Supportive administration. Easy to reach who you need for questions and in case of a need to cancel a shift.

Cons

Sometimes there is a lapse in work but that is not Kokua's fault. Sometimes there is a lot of work but it is too far to drive depending on where you live.
