Pros

You make connections with some cool co-workers and could remain friends. They went full-remote.

Kontras

They don't have good benefits (like your PTO and sick days go in the 'negatives' when used up), and they do not roll over to the next year if aren't used, so you get like 5 days off a year if lucky. C-level team does a very horrible job managing and could care less about you or your growth within the company. All they care about is making money and demanding you to work faster whilst paying you less money. They consider themselves 'agile' and use 'scrum' but make up their own rules such as: 1 story point=1 hour of work, which makes estimating impossible and sets you up for failure right away. Tickets that roll over to next sprints are considered a no-no and you will get called out for that. They expect you to be a cross-platform developer. They acquire so many companies/apps that you may find yourself working on 4 or 5 different tech stacks, which makes it hard to get good at anything. Poor work/life balance. With lack of support, you will be working late nights to avoid the embarrassment of not figuring something out. Imposter syndrome..yeah they'll give you even more of that feeling. High turnover rate for engineers. I would say more than half of them left within a year or less. Never a good sign.

Pros

The culture here is excellent! The CEO even has open calls with the entire company to take feedback and questions. I feel valued and respected which I can't say for many companies I've worked for in the past. The autonomy I'm allowed in this role is priceless. No one is micro managed here. I have a tremendous amount of freedom and flexibility and the work-life balance is amazing. I feel that the leadership genuinely cares about their teams and treats them as people instead of just employees.

Kontras

While I feel the pay is adequate, there's always room for improvement, especially as everything has gotten so expensive. That being said, the pros above makeup for it and then some. Frequent travel isn't for everyone. I happen to enjoy it and it works for me but I could see this being a con for some. Sometimes communication between internal departments can be clunky and slow. This is an attribute of most growing companies and I suspect it will improve organically.

Pros

I truly appreciate that the company lives by its core values, and I find the communication and support across most departments to be excellent. Furthermore, my direct manager is wonderful. They consistently value my suggestions and opinions, whether the feedback is positive or constructive.

Kontras

Some concerns regarding employee engagement and communication. In the past, initiatives like "coffee chats" with the CEO and monthly meetings with upper management were very effective in making staff feel that our ideas and opinions were valued. Since these meetings ended about a year ago, there has been a noticeable shift in morale, leading to a feeling that employee feedback is no longer a priority. Additionally, the high turnover rate in the sales department has created significant concerns regarding job security. I believe it would be beneficial for the company to address these issues directly by providing insight into why this turnover is occurring and sharing the strategic plan for moving forward.

Thank you for taking the time to share comments about your experience here at Spectrio. Our ICARE values are the guiding principles we live by every day so we’re thrilled that you recognize them in your interactions with your team and your manager. As you know, over the past few years, we have incorporated several different approaches to company wide communication such as in-person and virtual Town Hall meetings, Department Roundtables, webinars, smaller team meetings, cascading information via email, and other methods. While every team has different preferences and communication styles, we do appreciate your feedback about the effectiveness of your team’s prior Roundtables and coffee chats. We will pass your comments along to our leadership. We also hope to see you at one of our upcoming Coffee Chats with the CEO in early June! Additionally, we understand your concerns about turnover and want to assure you that we are actively working to identify the root causes so we can address them thoughtfully and strategically throughout the organization. Again, thank you for your candid feedback. We encourage you to continue to share your comments and suggestions with your manager, executive leader, or our CEO directly, or in our anonymous quarterly surveys so we can continue to enhance your experience here at Spectrio.
