A great idea, in theory

Pros

Kiva is on to something innovative -- and worthwhile.

Cons

The organization seems to rely on its brand recognition to recruit talent at little to no cost, i.e. free work, but doesn't put enough resources into making the experience valuable to those giving of their time and skills.

my coworkers were cool and there was a great work/life balance. they put a lot of effort and energy into team building.

Cons

the vision for the company is inconsistent with what it initially set out to do. management is deficient and disorganized. there is an extremely high rate of turnover lately.

Pros

Very friendly and supportive culture. One of the best places to work overall. The management team (with exception of the CTO) is amazing and embodies the Kiva culture!

Cons

New CTO is not the best cultural fit for Kiva. He has a "not so empathetic" vibe when something goes wrong.
