Avoid Kiva - Avis employé Employé (anonyme) Amazon Robotics

Management has lost control of the development process. They're floundering. Most of the time, they just pander to Amazon. The staff pays the price with killer hours, little or no vacation. No appreciation. Company is designed for engineers with no life, no girlfriends, no wives, no kids. If you're willing to work 60+ hours a week, then you get to keep your job. Project planning is awful. Management ALWAYS blames employees when things go wrong even though the underlying cause is poor planning. If an employee can't make up for the poor plan, they get a bad review. Very political company.
